If u remember right, Buddy had an inner ear issue for the Meldrick fight n he didn't perform well, getting stopped in the 11th. His first fight with a prime, ATG Pea was great. He was a true pro n extremely balanced in all facets of the game. I would've liked to see him stay healthy longer and seen where he could've gone. On a side note: he was ripped when he fought and he has BLOWN UP since retiring. Some guys just let that weight balloon.
