Curry was special .... loved the way he would stand right in front of his opponent and he was so fast and so slick that he could counter them from there. Very very good fighter indeed.


He was the best welter in the world for quite a while and would have been to much for ray Leonard to handle at that stage of his career. I don't think he would have takn hagler, though, unless the Marvelous One sleepwalked through the first five rounds like he ended up doing against Leonard.


I think he always struggled with his weight, and thats why he was never the same after the Honeyghan fight. He ended up moving to far up so he was just fighting guys too big for him.


better HOF entrant that McGuigan, methinks
