    Im a huge Carter fan, a lot of people on this board think he was overrated but I thought he did enough with his career considering the short time he had. Carter will always hold a special place in my heart when it comes to boxing.


    I have a good bit of the Hurricanes fights, classics.

      Hurricane had too many losses in a short career but his most impressive victorys were tko 1 of emille griffith knocked him down 3 times, and UD of jimmy ellis.

          He did lose quite a few fights, but I enjoyed watching the two or three fights I've seen.

            He was a beast. Anyone have any of his fights on their computer?

              I would like to see more of his fights. I don't remember the few I've seen very well. It was a few years back now. Seem to remember him fighting from a crouch, and rushing in with combos - not quite the way Tyson fought. I just remember the fight was one of his more famous losses, and they were showing it on TSN.

                    That would be a force to be reckoned with. Pity we never saw it.
