    Yeah I forgot about that.

        The stories were horrendous and sickening. I’m not sure the G-Man was the type of individual to covet any sympathy especially if he conducted himself in the same manner as he did outside the ring. It’s hard to extrapolate his career trajectory, so as opposed to saying he would be an ATG, it would be apropos to say he had the tools and raw attributes to have a great career but it’s impossible to know because his resume had few good names. Most notably an over the hill mugabi and Jackson who was far better at 154.

        McClellan wasn’t a Sanchez whose precociousness was apparent with wins over names like nelson and Gomez. Let’s not be hyperbolic when evaluating his hypothetical legacy, he could’ve been a Fernando Vargas.

          When they die early they are always romanticized and overrated, from Jimi Hendrix to McClellan.
