Indeed it is.

I couldn't decide between him and Curly from the 3 Stooges for my avator pic.

You made a great choice!

It's amazing to me that he lost to John Tate in the Olympic Trials.If he had gotten by Tate, he probably had a helluva shot at beating the overrated Stevenson.

The Lynn Ball fight and the Gardner fight were the two best showings of Dokes at his best.Even if his power wasn't fully developed.

Dokes was a good fighter at his best, he had great speed and good power, the Holyfield fight was one of the best heavyweight fights of the 80's

Is it true that Michael was released from prison last month?

[Stab Judah]

Last i heard about him he broke anther inmates jaw during a sparring match.

that old vdo of Dokes-Holyfield is one of my all-time faves..

[Silencers]

I think Dokes was an underachiever, he had the ability to achieve much more than he did, he had some really good fights though.

Plus, it is easy when Don King is on your side.
