Former wba world welterweight champion, defended the title beating jose luis lopez, freddie pendleton and sam garr, also had heated sparring encounter with oscar de la hoya were sources say he got the better off oscar. On a side note nearly won all his amature fights by knock out. What are your thoughts on page?

I remember he had a fight on a local card in the Bay Area. When it came time to fight, he wasn't at the event, because he'd been arrested for ****.
Apparently those charges were dropped or something, I'd like to think he's not a rapist, but he is a bank robber, and not a very good one either.
He was a hard-hitting WW with a killer left hook. Andre Pestriaev probably still has nightmares about that left hook Page hit him with.
One of George Foreman's infamous quotes is "no one is P4P number one until they beat James Page". Maybe he has a sort of fondness for Bay Area fighters (Page is from Pittsburg, Foreman trained in Hayward for awhile, both Bay Area cities) but that comment was pretty funny. Page wasn't a bad fighter or anything, but practically no one on earth would pick Page over some of those top WWs of the late 90s such as Tito, DLH, Ike, and Mosley.
Page had problems with King and was inactive for too long. Then he came back and got beaten to a pulp by Six Heads Lewis.
