I've always thought of him as a pretty good fighter, but I have seen him fight twice (Hamed and Morales) and he really didn't do a tremendous job in either one. I know he knocked Hamed down a few times (Hamed's balance sucks ass, he wasn't really hurt), but he fought the 100% wrong fight. He fought with his chin out and was being hit at will almost, because he loves to engage, even though it is not beneficial to him at all.
I know he got KO'd by Barrera as well.
I have heard that all of those were when he was past his prime, but, still... I am not aware of any huge wins he got in his prime, so...
What does Kevin Kelley have to hang his hat on for his career accomplishment?
i thought he was very good (loved hammed kelley).. i think he went like 41-0 before losing a match and fought with ppl liek barrera morales hammed ..and even koed derrick ganier and beat humberto soto and carolos hernandez ..so 2 say he is a bum is just disrespectful ..i think hes a pretty well accomplished fighter
He was a good fighter, fast, slick southpaw, he was also a very smart fighter. He opened the door for a lot of boxers on BAD, he advised HBO to match up Barrera and McKinney in they're first ever BAD, which was obviously very successful.
