back then, very very few people were digging into their wallets to buy fights of fighters outside the U.S.
He fought two hall of famers. He beat an old McCallum that was fighting well over his natural weight and was nearly 40 years old. The other hall of famer was Virgil Hill who blew him out in the first round. He a good but not great fighter that is NOT hall of fame worthy imo.
He had a very good record and was a two division champion. His only defeats came to one man who is a hall of fame member. But like someone already said the quality of his wins are very weak. If anything is keeping him out, that’s probably it.
And was knocked out by him in 2000. I remember that fight well as I thought Hill was there for the taking because of his age.
