    I've still got this, 'No Mas' and the Johnny Tapia documentary to catch up on.

      retired as soon as he got his 40 year old legends on his resume then ducked out as soon as the division he was in his entire career got deep with the supersix.

      worse than floyd's 2 retirements when welter was hot and deep.

        'Could' have been the greatest of all time but didn't travel until too late in his career and didn't fight the best at the time. He had a rock solid chin though and fast hands.I was a big fan of his at the time but when you look back at his record it's not all gold. I used to be huge fan of Hamed too, but his record was a bit of a joke too.

        It's still not a proper sport but glad boxing has grown up a bit these days. In those days if you got a loss it was almost all over for you now people expect losses more.

                  Maybe second or third best. Jones was the best 168 pounder of all time.

                    Great documentary. I didn't know he had such trouble with his hands. When people complain about him slapping, they should take that into account. I always liked watching him. He was busy and active and knew all kinds of tricks in the ring. One of the best. I also didn't know Michael J. Fox was such a boxing fan.

                      Can you blame him? Boxing is awesome.
