This is a guy that could have had it all, tons of ability. Ended up having a solid career, but not what it could have been.
In the first 30-40 seconds of the video they show a few clips from his fight with Othal "Choo Choo" Dixon; that is the guy in blue trunks getting knocked out of the ring, and then getting stopped all in 90 seconds of the first round. What they don't show, but should have was one of the craziest things I have ever seen in boxing.
They came out punching as hard and as fast as they could. Dixon nailed Pedroza and he went down to one knee, but the ref was behind Dixon and didn't notice Pedroza go down. He didn't notice because Engels never stopped punching, not on the way down, not on the way back up, and not until he stopped Dixon a minute later.
