Well done on that observation .

I have no doubts that the headbutt had a knock on effect which damaged the rest of his career . Whther he went gunshy after or he just lost his timing , im certian it stems down to that fight and that incident . He is still a top world class fighter now ofcourse but maybe if he wasnt nutted that night then now he could be the new Sugar Ray Robinson
