      Well hes been on the P4P list since 1998 and spent most of his career being the smaller man in the ring. Nice try though.

        People call DLH an ATG? If they are perception on him has changed quite a bit since his fighting days.

            I wouldn't call him an ATG based on in ring achievements where I think he's borderline since he did fight a lot of "names", but the argument could be made for him being an ATG because of his ability to transcend the sport and give it credibility with mainline fans for a decade long period.

            Especially since it came during a time when the sport was marred by its other huge star biting peoples ears off and doing jail time for raping women.

              No he didn't. He was always bigger than everyone at 30, 35' and 40. Corrales was the exception but he was only tall and lanky.

              And now he's coming into the ring at 160 pounds easily.

                Like Whitaker? Or Quartey? STFu you, yesir, and frank Ducketts are the most idiotic group of fans. You guys ride the same short bus as Pasawayako, Baracuda and ModernTalking.

                  I had all the tale of the tapes saved but I lost him he was smaller though.

                  Pac on the other hand outweighed alot of people in his day as well..Only the newbies on Boxingscene who have been following him since 2008 think hes been this little as dude beating bigger men his whole career.

                  But i Digress when are you going to do another ring of fire?

                      I do too...I swear that fucker took a dive.

                      I kept hearing someone yell body shot loud as hell before the "blow" was landed. **** seemed suspect. Those kind of shots paralyze you Oscar was moving just fine.
