    Craig Peterson vs Alex Stewart.

    Was a big Peterson fan back in the day and this turned out to be his last win from memory, before his death. Both guys dropped once before Peterson forced the ref to calll it off with both of Stewarts eyes swollen shut.

    Checked BoxRec and it was Peterson's last win, then there was his final bout against Byrd, and then his death less than 3 months after that.

    ...on the Net I found he died in his house in New Mexico, and perhaps it was a drug overdose or suicide???

    The other one I've always wondered about was

    , the former champion kickboxer. Died young, but always wondered how/why? Have never read what happened to him.

    Just finished Froch V Taylor this morning. Jermain so close to winning and gets stopped 14 sec to go. Surprising how much basic skill Taylor lacks. Like basic head movement and being able to keep his hands up properly. Froch also looked really uncoordinated and sloppy in this fight. He is just a toughman not alot of skill. Both fighters were throwing wide looping shots in this fight particularly with the right hand. I expect Kessler to take Froch apart when they fight.

    Yeah CHB, was a drug overdose.

    Have heard some stories over the years but wont share them here. When he was on song though was a handful.

    Just watched Holyfield beating up Tyson in the 1st fight the other day. That fight alone showed when bullied himself, Tyson couldn't find a way to turn a defeat around. did also show what a tough chin he had, Holy hit him with everything & still he stayed on his feet. Great fight.
