    A little info on ralph Dupas, who fought this day years ago. I've read he was something to see, but I've never found any of his fights. 106-23 and he fought many good fighters.

    Bring back memories. I use to think Lloyd Honeyghan was the best welterweight but Brown beating Vaca who gave such problems to Lloyd was impressive.
