He did have some skill.Poor mans Gatti who could also box more then he did.Katsides was tough as hell not a great fighter but a warrior.And Tszyu v Chavez was on showtime.

Sorry, no, but you mentioned Fenech who was the trainer so you're pretty close.

Another Hint: It was a slugfest and a candidate fight of the year.

Jim Lampley is horrific and a cancer to the sport. I never liked him and will never like him. His commentating is pure biased HBO propaganda. He has a script that he sticks to during a fight and just starts making things up if the fight doesn't go the way he wants/or it happens.

For that matter I can't stand anyone associated with HBO...Lederman, Merchant, and even Kellerman lately. I still like RJJ thought and Andre Ward/BHop when they guest commentate. BHop might be Showtime, but I forget

Nope...that was Showtime not HBO.
