Jaime Balboa - Boxer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtVAcdlIsFQ
Mikkell Kessler, Meldrick Taylor, Julio Caesar Chavez when he was 71-0, Vince Phillips, Freddie Roach even, this fuckin guy fought em all....and lost to em all. But still, he was a lil warrior. Managed to win 65 fights, 59 by KO.
Jamie 'Rocky' Balboa... Now that is a blast from the past.
He was a bit more than a recognizable name; if you were not a top 50 fighter in your division Balboa found you out, as he was as you suggest, no mug.
But he was also no 'Iowa' Mike Tyson! ;)
Quentessential have gun will travel warrior right there. He is responsible for finally making me shut up and take the hype blinders off about Derrell Colley who I was convinced "had the goods" ;D. He comes in as typical 5 day late sub, has to go up a division in Coleys back yard and proceeds to drop him and hurt him a few times with perfectly timed left hooks. Jaime let him punch himself out...again...and had him holding on like a drunk zombie after dropping Coley hard in the final minute of 12th. Rocky had him, thought he deserved the nod!
Thanks for sharing fellas. Shame I didn't get to see this guy fight in his day. Before my time.
Unique name and fighter though.
Odd to see a journeyman with so many wins and ko's in addition to his losses.
I saw him fight Meldrick taylor, Darryl Tyson, and Angel Hernandez. He also fought Primo Ramos who had a one punch 2nd round KO over Frankie Randall.
Chavez right hand is a bomb, Rocky is the type of guy that stayed fit by fighting regularly.
