its really short and kind of garbage, but I didnt have much to work with in terms of footage. And Im STILL working on my JCC highlight, but when I actually get it done, itll be a good one.

Wow, good shit. Pipino was the man. He was much, much better than his record says.
his record only looks bad if you concentrate on the 35-15-0. otherwise, it looks great. people concentrate too much on losses sometimes, even when a lot of those losses came when when Cuevas was 14-16.
In total, his opponents had a combined record of 505-70-29..he fought some pretty goo guys.
I think Im gonna make an Iran Barkley highlight next, simply because I always liked the guy and he always put on exciting fights and gave it his all. hell, he had a lot of very good wins himself even if you dont count the Hearns wins.
the JCC one is on hold for now, because the 40+ fights of his that I have are on a different computer that isnt working to well at the moment.
Pipino was 18 when he won the Welterweight Title, almost as good as Benitez. although in terms of style, those two were polar opposites, haha.
I chose The Platters-Twilight Time as the song. It seemed kind of fitting for some reason, lol. good ole 50s music. plus it was a short song, and this was a short highlight. so I thought it worked out in a really odd way.
The guy turned pro when he was 14! now how about that? that explains his early losses and why he left his prime at such a young age too.
Cuevas was a beast. its well documented that he would consistantly break peoples jaws, orbital bones, and ribs in back to back fights...I have no doubt he had a hard time getting sparring partners, let alone people to fight em. crazy stuff.thanks.wow.18.that's wild.
send me a download link to the highlight, i want to put this one on my cell phone
edit: great info, never did i know he was 18 as you said almost to match Benitez, i know that Dundee didn't want Leonard to fight Cuevas for his title shot cause he punched too hard
umm I kind of already deleted it so uhh...lol.
download the Youtube downloader, then you can just download the video off of youtube. its pretty much the same thing, about the same quality.

Nice work.
Pipino was a brutal puncher and a bit overlooked today. He actually KO'ed a scared Jorgen Hansen from Denmark in the first round. Jorgen Hansen was perhaps the most popular danish fighter ever. When he fought Cuevas he was on the top of his fame and power although he was ca. 36 years old. Hansen was coming off a huge upset over Dave 'boy' Green who was brutally kayoed in 3 rounds in what's probably the most famed performance by a dane in recent history.
The Cuevas fight was hoped to be Hansen breaktrough in America. The fight was on the undercard of Leonard - Kalule in the superdome.
