why do so many old timers look so bad on tape???

You should go educate yourself mate. There's four of his fights on youtube, two of which I personally uploaded. Someone else explained him perfectly the other day actually. He could do a little bit of everything, but perhaps his standout assets were his work rate and stamina. Great body puncher, and would often counter for the first couple of rounds to feel out his opponent before breaking them down with body shots and a sharp right hand. Not much power to speak of, but he would have held his own against Chang in my view.

 

I can't praise Chang enough, so that on it's own is enough to peak my curiousity. How do you think he would've gone on against Gushiken or Lopez?

 

I haven't seen enough of Gushiken too comment, but I liken Myung Yuh to Rosendo Alvarez if only slightly. Myung when he was the smaller man in the ring, and clearly out of his depth on the outside, had the capacity to weasel himself inside and bang to body and head. Now, whether or not Myung would have the power to get Ricardo's respect like Alvarez did...is a different story. I couldn't call the fight, but I think Myung beats both Gonzalez and Carbajal.

Myung's resume is not terrific, but he was consistent, and I can gauge just by watching him fight that he was very good. He could work behind a nice jab and work combination's behind it. He could get the better of all of his opponents on the side by utilising his body attack, and he threw in combination very well. He had skills, and he had all the intangibles like heart, chin, stamina, all of this was among his best traits. He just might struggle against the other greats because he was not a physical specimen by any stretch of the imagination, he had little power to speak of, and I imagine he could be bullied...certainly by Chang.

You'd have to expect Chang to beat him though.
