    Watch/Study over the weekend?

    I'm really digging Donald Curry at the moment. Just watching his fight with McCrory...

    How about you?

    There was a time, however brief, where all the boxing magazines at the time (right after the McCrory demolition) were calling Curry the best pound-for-pound fighter in the world, ahead of even the more established Hagler. He had gotten progressively more impressive in the previous year against stiffer and stiffer competition like Larocca, then Colin Jones (very impressive stoppage there as well) and then that short, sweet performance against McCrory. To this day, I call it the prettiest left hook I've ever seen. Picture perfect.

    I didn't watch any boxing this weekend. Too much other stuff going on these days.

    A phenomenal left hook, indeed. Plus, that right hand that 'sealed the deal' was absolutely savage!

    George Foreman vs Ron Lyle... They both exposed each other in the toughest win of Foremans career.....

    Been watching some old Marvin Johnson fights lately. All wars. One guy, I think his name was Emebe fought a classic. Think it was later in pops' career. Can't go wrong with Marvin

    There was virtually no tell. Marvellously executed.
