      Hmmm... Are there any Emanuel Steward Kronk Gym fighters left other than Lee?

        Damn straight.

        And with GGG likely to move up after Saunders, he could easily find himself in the mix.

        He was having trouble getting decent fights. Understandable that he's been frustrated. But plenty of domestic/Euro level scraps he could have been getting til his shot came.

        And sure....with his chin in the air he's always gonna be the underdog.

        But GAAAAWWWDDD that R HOOK.

        I honestly think he could be the guy to force GGG to protect himself at all times.

        He certainly would not be waving Andy in for free shots.

            He had a pretty good run and he's getting out healthy. Can't scoff at that. Good luck, champ!

                Had a great run and he'd been on the decline for some time. Was definitely a fan.

                Enjoy your retirement, champ!

                  I can replay this KO all day and it never seizes to disappoint.

                  Enjoy retirement from boxing Andy, you had some memorable bouts.

                    He was never the same after Emmanuel Steward passed. That was like his father. Good career, and a good time to hang em up
