Primo Carnera. Jeez I heard the man was quick with a blizzing jab. Long time no see here in the classics.
Tiger Jones beat SRR in a Robinson 1955 comeback fight by a wide margin. Not the SRR couldn't have won in a rematch.....but he never gave Jones a rematch, nor a Title Shot, out of professional courtesy. 1955-01-19 : Sugar Ray Robinson 159 lbs lost to Ralph Jones 159 lbs by UD in round 10 of 10 Location: Chicago Stadium, Chicago, Illinois, USA Referee: Frank Sikora 94-99 Judge: Ed Hintz 88-100 Judge: Howard Walsh 89-98 Unofficial AP scorecard: 95-99
I could call Salido "potentially" great. Since JLC gave PBF problems at LW, I think at FW & SuperFeather Orlando Salido's tricks of the trade, master-craftsman of the combination nutsack combo..could've snatched Floyd's '0" He's very active, trades upstairs & downstairs effortlessly & again, he knows subtle stuff. Floyd won't hurt him. And if you put in Lawrence Cole as ref, floyd quits after the 12th-15th blatant foul.--unless Uncle Rog steps in, then a DQ for Orlaaannddoooooo Saleeeeeeddddoooooooooo!! Paul Williams in a previous era, wouldn't have been overlooked like Pac & Floyd did him. Pac KO's him, but I think he overwhelms Floyd in the punchstats-averaging 100 per round? PW over Floyd. PW also beats Terry Norris at SuperWelter...a come from behind shot after being outboxed. But the shot that he landed on Quintana...takes out Norris too. At least IMO. Too bad his accident prevented him from making a run at being an ATG.
TwoTon Toney vs James Toney the ton- o- tub..the version that fought Rahman? jeesh. A lot of short range punching in that one!
