        gladly (and yes, boxrec was used. let some quasi fight fan say they know all there is to know about guys from that era and before)....

        layne (at the time he fought rocky)....
        23 y/o whos never been in the ring with anyone of note. a bunch of compilers (j kahut and thompson 50 wins....PLEASE). he was a young guy that posed not threat whatsoever to rocky. in fact, all hes known for is just another guy who fought rocky. rocky fans love to bring this guys name up.

        ''yeah but rocky ruined him !'' there was nothing to ruin. he wasnt ever going to amount to anything.

        matthews (at the time he fought rocky)....
        30 y/o who collected wins from a bunch of padders. windmill pearce, 82 wins....RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIGHT. feducia, 62 wins.....RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIGHT. basora, 77 wins....RRRRRRRRRRRRRRIGHT. burke, 100+ wins....RRRRRRRRRRRRIGHT. on and on. bfd, he beat a shot charles.


        Lee Savold (at the time he fought rocky)....
        his last fight. i guess he wanted one more payday after joe did him in. everything prior to him fighting rocky is inconsequential. but lets look see at who he fought.....
        78 win walker (HA!!!!!)
        73 win dorazio (HA!!!!!)
        96 win knox (HA!!!!!!)
        82 win kreiger (HA!!!!!!)

        (i dont get the elmer ray connection)

        lastarza, the name thats brought up the most. as if this guy was the goods. his only claim to fame to have been thisclose to beating rocky. what name on rolands resume is supposed to impress someone ?!?!?!?!? 62-62 lowery ?!?!!? how could a guy be so hyped but yet have no names ?!?!?!?


        this is my main gripe with guys from that era. too many BUMS padding their stats. no level of discernment. too many guys fighting just to pay their bar tab.

        may is without question the guy with the superior resume and more talent. wtf

                  As much as I hate to say it, Floyd has light years of a better resume.
