    looks like Paul Williams in there against Starling (2nd fight).

    He is so damn tall.

    Why did he suck so bad as a pro? Wasn't he supposed to be the GOAT or something?

      He didn't suck as a pro, he just didn't live up to expectations.

      He had a suspect chin and didn't have great stamina, he'd wear down towards the end of most of his fights.

      You'd never expect him to have much power on him because he was so thin but he was a very powerful puncher.

          he was a victim of being bumped up early....you know how they say dont feed an ego? Well this guy was built up and hyped up so much they even gave him a co lead role in a big hollywood Movie before he even got a chance to win a title as a pro!
          It is a shame that he never lived up to the hype if the story played out he should of retired with a championship and millions like ray leonard. But it was not meant to be.
          He is one of the sad stories in Boxing The guy just couldn't live up to the billing that was pushed on him before he turn pro.
