        He's WAS pretty good. We was a credible champion. Not GREAT, but someone you'd want on your resume.

          No.Not even close.

          Freitas was much better technically.

            That's why i said "in a way". I meant he was on of the top guys in his division.

              The way you said it sounded like you mean they fought the same way.

                He was a talented quitter, just like Victor Ortiz.

                    wasnt Freitas 30-0, 30 kos at one point? guy who said he punched like a mule got it right. something happened he lost that hunger and started fading in fights, there were reports he had trouble making weight coz of not taking training seriously.

                      LOL, that's true quisqueya, that one shot **** did work. I remember though, in the beginning of his career, he was fun to watch because most of his fight got into heated exchanges, and his sloppy style got him some nice looking KO's. But yeah, he was nothing special, just a lot of fun to watch.
