    A wild guess would be Davey Moore (the one brutalized by Duran). I'm not confident at all in that pick however.

    Shorter then that.

    I met this guy a couple of times during his career. He won the title then lost and retired.

    Bukkake, im never going to forgive you. I went to say leo randolph before you even posted and thought that would be the only time i would get a question right that H asks.
