    Always loved the Carlos Palomino-Dave "Boy" Green fight from way back in 1977. Check out the devastating hook that KO's Green at the 6:30 mark.

    I always thought that King Carlos was such a beautiful fighter in the 3 consecutive bouts with Starcey-Muniz 1-Green.

    He never seemed quite as good after this fight. I think his fascination with Hollywood cost him his fighting edge. What a good fighter he was though. Also intelligent, articulate and handsome to boot. Saw this recently posted on Youtube and wanted to share with other Carlos fans.

    It was a great left hook...and I thought so at the time it happened.
