    I saw an unfavorable account of Darnell Boone, so this post is necessary, I dare any Undefeated prospect at 160/154 to face Darnell Boone, even the current older version & still we will get to see some nice Knockouts :deal

    Boone fought as low as 156 without having to drain weight (5'6" fella who is listed 5'7") & instead matchmakers gave him fights way above his weight/height/reach, yet Boone made the best of it :smoke

    • Andre Ward only KD in his life was (because of Boone)
    • Adonis Stevenson is 27-1-0 (because of Boone)
    • Sergey Kovalev lost his 100% Ko ratio (because of Boone)
    • Sergey Kovalev down for the first time (because of Boone)
    • Lennox Allen is 20-0-1 (because of Boone)
    • Morgan Fitch is 16-0-1 (because of Boone)
    • James Countryman is 14-1-0 (because of Boone)
    • Ronalid Johnson is 11-1-0 (because of Boone)
    • GGG last opponent only lost once (because of Boone)
    • KO Artist James Johnson quit boxing (because of Boone)
    • Lajuan Simon has 2 draws (because of Boone)
    • Judges made extra $ SD, MD, UD (because of Boone)

    This is the reason Kovalev has a draw on his record.

    That would be correct he's 1 of only 3 opponents to last the distance against Kovalev. Good fighter.

    Kovalev might have lost his 100% KO record thanks to Boone but Boone hit Andre Ward so hard that both him and his trainer lost their memories. :rofl

    Have you heard the legend of Kenny ''The Real Krusher'' Kost? He hurt him real good too.

    Of course it's much easier to avoid getting knocked down and out if you're allowed to grab a hold of your opponents like a gay octopus all the time or to duck your head down to knee and ankle level or stiff-arming them to keep them at bay. :yep

    Kost was famous & had good expectations going in undefeated, vague memory of Andre Ward being momentarily buzzed. This is expected from any undefeated fighter

    Undefeated Wade/Barrera are no joke :think

    I don't seem to remember Boone knocking kovalev down or wrestling him down. I think that rumor took off years ago but it's never actually been seen by any living person

    The majority accept that Kovalev was floored by Boone, otherwise how did 5'6" Boone push it into a SD, he surely can't outbox Kovalev
