    You have a very loose definition of "hurt".

      I think he ment how good he was in his prime, not now.

      Corley at his best could always push the best and was a pretty capable fighter. Him and Zab Judah was a very close fight, him and Zab also had a fight in a bar.

      He also did make 2 defences of his WBO Title

        Never heard that before whats the backstory???


        I used to love zab judah until he backed out from his fight with Antonio diaz

        Also his lack of training and attitude isnt exactly inspiring either

            Corely was a good fighter in his prime. He was competitive with Judah and badly hurt Cotto. He definitelty hurt Floyd once as well though not nearly as bad as Cotto, who was almost out.

                He wasnt out of his prime. He was just the Champ and just lost to Zab who was a beast at the time

                  He has fought Zab Judah and Floyd and he hurt floyd bunch of times but I dont know to much about him except his a southpaw and he likes burger king but sometimes in fights he cant have it his way.



                  Also what is his fighting style in terms of is he a boxer/puncher or a defensive type of guy????




                  Thanks!
                  I know more about Chop then anyone on here as he's from my area and I use to talk to him. I also hyped him up alot on here before the Cotto fight. Everyone dissed me but they gave me props after the fight. He's more of a pure boxer but could also be described as a boxer/puncher. Most people dont like boxers on here so they all think theyre garbage.

                  Chop was a very good fighter. To me he was just under the elite level. In his prime I dont think you would beat him unless you were the very best like a Floyd, Cotto, and even a Zab who was very good at that time. He was a Southpaw which gave people alot of problems. Im the biggest Floyd fan there is but dont apologize for your "hurt him a bunch of times" comment. He did buzz Floyd a few times and Floyd probably got hit more in that fight then he has in the rest of his career together, e****aly in the 1st half of the fight. Some say that he was never hurt but thats garbage. He hurt Floyd bad one time, buckled him another, and landed other good clean shots that made Floyd smile because he's never been hit that clean. That was a great fight. Chop was actualy going to by my brothers Benz one time. My brother was locked up and Chop was training for the Zab fight. I went over his house and gave his wife a test drive, just us 2 together. His wife was at all his fights and you can hear her screaming and yell at every fight. He has a ton of kids and I think he take care's of his brothers kids also who I think got murdered or something.

                  He did wear women's underwear from Vicky Seceret and thats where alot of people know him from but he was a highly skilled and very good fighter. He use to call me about the car and tell me about getting into it with Zab. I cant remember all the details but he was telling me how Zab was saying, "**** that, Im from Brooklyn and we'll body you *****z". He was also telling me about him & Joppy getting into it in the gym. He was beefin with Joppy & Sharmba Mitchell at the time. Joppy started talking **** and then Chop was clowning him about Tito knocking him out cold. Joppy then said that he made a mil for the fight and how Chop will never ever see a mil. Chop told him that money dont matter but that man still knocked you the **** out and then Joppy snuck him with a punch and everyone broke it up. He was a good guy. Even back then I was telling him that Floyd was my favorite and he said that he liked Floyd but asked him for a fight and Floyd said NO. Sure enough after I stopped talking to him, he later fought Floyd and moved out Vegas to train with him full time and have Roger for his trainer. Its also funny because he didnt buy our benz but I went by his home and he had another benz so he probably found a cheaper one. Ours was loaded with TV's, tinted windows and all. Even Tony Thompson, the HW that fought Wlad tried to buy it.

                    He was a dangerous fighter at his best. Corley might be washed up now but he has actually won 5 of his last 6, 4 by KO's, the lone loss being a robbery.

                      He fought Floyd, Judah, Cotto. He actually hit Floyd, almost beat a prime Judah and rocked and got an early stoppage in PR vs Cotto....And he is a journeyman. Chop Chop was a solid boxer at the least. His wardrobe was entertaining.
