That was a classic Do or Die by Chacon. He should have stayed one weight lower than Boom Boom. Ray walked through Chacon's punches and Chacon took some nasty head shots.Comment

Both Mancini and Chacon were involved in some amazing high level action fights, Macho...especially the Schoolboy, who I think was easily one of the most exciting fighters that I've ever seen and his wars with the likes of Limon & Boza are still considered by me to be some of the best action/drama fights that I've seen.Originally posted by machotimeGood clip man, keep them up, I haven't seen many of his fights but from what I have seen, he had an exciting style.
Mancini was involved in some classic action fights too, and if you want to kill a but only a couple of minutes get a hold of his title winning effort against Art Frias...You'd be hardpressed finding a one round fight that level of back-and-forth action, as the two fighters exchanged wildly right from the opening bell (from memory Frias rocked Mancini in the opening seconds and the war was ON!).Comment

Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
From Youngstown, Ohio, Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini
A lightweight contender, like father like son
He fought for the title with Frias in Vegas
And he put him away in round number one
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating
Seven weeks later he was back in the ring
Some have the speed and the right combinations
If you can't take the punches it don't mean a thing
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
Hurry home early - hurry on home
Boom Boom Mancini's fighting Bobby Chacon
When they asked him who was responsible
For the death of Du Koo Kim
He said, "Someone should have stopped the fight, and told me it was him."
They made hypocrite judgments after the fact
But the name of the game is be hit and hit back
Hurry home early - hurry on home

Hurry home early - hurry on home
