    yeah, saw that clip on MT's documentary.... it was amazing to see him at 16/17 years old... what a freak of nature! Im not sure how he was that powerfully built at such a young age...

    one play-by-play commentator during a fight said something like - he punches at the speed of a welterweight!

    That was the magic explosiveness of his punches, SPEED & power.... also that speed translated to the accuracy of his power punches. The delivery speed accounts alot for contact, besides timing and lousy defense.

    On a MMA forum, this vid was posted and all the MMA fans were saying it was speeded up. I had to point out that the rest of the background was not speeded up.

    Tyrell Biggs was levels above Luis Firpo and Don Cockell in terms of skills. Pinklon Thomas would be Top 5 P4P if he had fought in the 20s and 30s.
