Donald Curry was 400-4 as an Ameteur

[Dynamite Kid]

From August 1983 to July 1988 I was 57-13 (Went 17-1 in 1987).

just looked on your website u are on lucky SOB to have met all those great fighters etc

BTW i see u in that interview with Roy Jones JR Prior to the James Toney fight ,u know when Roy Jones is sparring [Lindell Holmes i think it is] was that McClellan in the video sitting next to Ray Leonard looks like him

You have the two sparring sessions confused...when RJ is sparring with McClellan and Sugar Ray sitting by the ring, he is sparring with me at Sugar Ray's gym in Maryland...when he is sparring with Lindell, that is at his gym in Florida. I am one of the guys standing ringside (I have a black hat on) but Ray and Gerald werent there.

did u spar with McClellan and if so how hard does he hit

When you look at Curry and his amateur record, he probably reached him prime and blew his load before even turnning pro.

His rise as a pro was dramatic and he was amazing. He simply lost it overnight. He had great defence, and his punches were fast, accurate and hard. He had it all. If he would have turned pro a year or two earlier, he could have ended up on some all time great lists.

We'll never know now.

I would likely have sparred with Gerald during that camp but, as he himself told me, his jaw was still hurting from his fight (he won) with RJ about four weeks earlier

was that after his Ameteur win over RJ

Do NOT believe in any way that NORRIS had a record like that. Terry was not a world class elite level amateur back then and as a matter of fact the only time I have ever even seen his name in any results section was one year he fought at either the Under 19's or the Western Trials. If he had a record like that he would have been at the Golden Gloves, the U.S. Championships, The Olympic Trials and certainly would have been a regular in the USA/ABF national rankings. But he was not

u tell that terry norris nut hugger nice post scully!
