    Akinwande was world class. 50 wins 30 knockouts, only 5 losses. FACT.

    I'll never forget Mils Lane's immortal words to Akinwande ' He Fred Astaire do you wanna fight or dance"? Few mins later " Ok Fred youre outta here" ROFL Mills DQ'd him
    The REAL Nigerian Nightmare was Ikemafula Ibeabuchi. All Ike did wrong was call that lying hooker in Vegas. The Klitschko bros would have never got a title
    Keep on Punchin"

    Ibeabuchi would have found another way to wind up where he did! Mental illness is a multi-lane freeway with plenty of on ramps and few exits.

    Yes I thought at the time there was a danger Evander would take him lightly and Henry had a chance of springing an upset with that long jab and right hand frustrating Evander over 12. I think holyfield fought vaugn bean instead but had it been Henry in the ring that night instead who knows

    I was going to put a bet on it but with Don King being the promoter I thought they would rob Henry to set up a unification fight with Lennox.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
