Longshot fights

[TigerFan]

Was Honeyghan a HUGE underdog? I know that fight is always brought up when discussing Brits going overseas.

What could it be compared to today? What would it be the equivalent to?

How was curry ranked at the time P4P?

According to the LA Times...Curry was "The best fighter, pound for pound, in the world today."
