    I recently saw a highlight video uploaded by Hanzagod on this apparently obscure fighter. How would he fair against today's crop of super featherweights? Also, was he has devastating of a puncher as the highlights make him out to be? Some of those KOs are brutal in both of those highlights. Here are two highlight vids below:

    I remember his name and Calvin Grove beating him. Was Narcisco Valenzuela his signature win or just the only one I remember?

    I always remember Tuur from the 1988 Olympics.

    Yes, my only real memory of Tuur was when he knocked out Kelcie Banks at the Olympics. NBC had done a series of profiles on Banks. He was supposed to be a lock to win the gold. And in his first fight at the Olympics, Tuur wasted him in brutal fashion.

    But I don't believe I ever saw Tuur as a pro.
