    I remember that fight quite well, Galindez was pretty bloodied up, the referee was considering stopping the fight and awarding Richie Kates the WBA title, there was a lot of confusion, the fight was allowed to resume, Victor stopped Kates in round 15.

    Win or lose , I never Saad Muhammad or Marvin Johnson in a boring fight.
    If you like total dominate performances, almost all of Bob Foster's Lt.heavy championship fights.

    How did he hit so hard being so skinny? One expects muscular guys like Hagler or Moore or Tyson to hit hard. Although big muscles don't always equal punching power, you just expect a muscular fighter to hit hard. But you have tall, skinny men like Bob Foster and Tommy Hearns who had concussive power that rung many a bell.

    Alexis Arguello - El Flaco Explosivo - fits that model too, obviously.

    Look at some of you're most dynamic punchers through-out boxing history.
    Zarate, Lopez (Danny), Arguello, Hearns, Forrest, Saddler, Mcclendon and of course
    Foster to name a few.
    What did they have in common? They usually had a sizable height and
    reach advantage over most of their opponents.
    They developed prefect leverage and technique with timing. Everyone
    had a punishing hard jab. some of the taller skinnier men were some of the most lethal punchers in boxing
    history. Punching power isn't about big muscles in general, but
    speed, timing, technique, and with taller fighters leverage.
