      Yes actually. It's this guy from Brooklyn. Good boxer, not much power. All he could was pretty much keep the guy away by throwing the jab out there. I think his name was Paulie Malignaggi.

        Not sure, but I wouldn't think so. There was a case of a fighter with one leg who fought with a prostetic and even fought for a cruiserweight belt. Can't remember his name though.
