I did not grow up in the era of this fighter but I did watch his movie, bleed for this. Wow he took all four screws of that Halo off his head with no painkiller dagonit! He seemed to be a natural. At the end of the movie he said none of it was hard, the boxing part.
Strangely enough he was like 5 foot 6 fighting Roy at lt. Hw! He seemed like a badass coming back after a broken neck and he beat the great Duran. He also shared the ring with the late great Roger Mayweather, God rest his soul.
Where do you rate him in the atg's or how great of a fighter would he have been if he didn't get into that car accident? Was he natural instincts like they would say? Hof'er?
There is a great rapper from Philadelphia named Vinnie paz. He is an all time great in hip hop. His group is called the Jedi mind tricks. He is also Italian and draws strength from the namesake.
Vinnie was a tough guy, a real fighters demeanor.
Dont know what youre meaning as in Natural, he was naturally a tough game combatant that learned boxing as others learn, boxing is a school, going in you have natural attributes like gameness, quick reflexes, good power etc , but then you must learn how to apply them.
I guess you answered it by his demeanor. I was just thinking about how Andre ward said boxing was hard for him, he wasn't a natural like the Pacquiao s and the Mayweather's.
