    I knew he was young and gifted but I didn’t realise he was black.

    Good job the video was titled as it was

              I think that the Oscar fight was really close but I scored it for Sweat Pea, the Chavez fight was a straight robbery tho, the same for the Ramirez fight.

                Sweat Pea was great defensively but he had a mean streak inside of him.

                  Whitaker and James Toney are the best fighters that I have ever seen that can punch while backing up.

                    I think should watch more fights if you think James Toney is the best fighter you’ve seen throwing punches while stepping backwards because that’s not something he’s overly good at.
