Bro I seriously thought the guy could have been the future of the middleweight division, I thought he won the fight with Wright by 1 or 2 rounds. To bad he had that car crash cause he was on the brink of the big time!!!

It sounded pretty bad, broke both his legs I think, killed two tourists as well I think, so I think Starr is right he could be in jail now!
Re: harry simon/was he gonna be an all time great?
i think joe calzaghe had 200+ fights with 2 losses

I heard he is in prison for killing the 2 tourists and running away from the scene of the crime so i dont think he broke his legs. Might be wrong though!
He was a class act though.

He lost six of his first 30 fights. His last loss, in 1990 at the Euro's, was a disgusting robbery.
