    Lolenga mock - 43-16-1

    48 year old

    2018 beat a 20-1-2 chudinov, then dropped a SD to yildrim.

    only been stopped once. Still fighting.

    5 10 so not the tallest, not the biggest puncher but has went to light heavy.

    Nearly stopped haye who weighed 193lbs.

    the man is WAR

    I ****ing love Lolenga Mock, but as a rule of thumb, he hasn't got a WAR style of fighting.

    WAR mentality, relatively patient style of fighting though.

    Absolute ****ing peoples champ nonetheless.

    giving him war points for other intangibles

    age
    Chin
    Heart
    Fighting above weight class
    Giving contenders a run at nearly 50
    Going 12 / 10 rounds at 50!

    He gets a hat

    No mention of Chacón?

    I'm setting you homework bro. Bobby Chacón is quite literally the most exciting fighter I've ever seen, along with Saad Muhammad and Gaspar Ortega. I'll tag you.

    valero is like the Benoit of boxing. Is he cap worthy? Does he deserve the honour of haglers iconic WAR cap?

    Fair play, I'm on board with anything that lets people know about the legend that is Lolenga Mock, but the logic means B-Hop needs a hat too!

    I wouldn’t be against Hopkins getting a hat, but his achievements speak for themselves.
    He is deserving clearly, but maybe for those who fell just a bit short of top ten greatness. (Not including hagler) lol
