I remember the aftermath and putting that debate back on the front burner. Wasn't 4 though huh..it was 6 oz? A sad statement on a State commission, Texas...go figure, letting a sanctioning body headed by a crook dictate the terms. Lee's reasoning after the fact was the camps had a chance to protest. The commision doesn't want to lose a huge hometown fight for local and everyone nudges and winks and neglects its responsiblity to a rule they had on the books I believe. Wasn't the IBF the only body mandating 6 oz in championship fights? Not sure. I think it can be said that Akeem was greenish at least at high level and certainly had never been in a war. He would have also been more served with having gone rounds in a fire fight prior, he had a habit of smothering his gift of range and once he had a guy sit inside, in and out with a body-head short attack he had to give as good as he got just to keep his head above water or sink. The 6 oz sped up his damage big time but his lack of know how on the ropes was there. Quiroga was indeed talented. He had been deep and was the more experienced of two. Had been cut up, hurt and well traveled. Its the unpredictable and brutal world of the ring and while its good and overdue that they instituted new guidlines we still continue to see tragedy before and after.
