    You gotta love this guy and feel for him that he is right back where he started: "The streets of the South Bronx, New York".

    Hope he makes a full recovery. For all of the tough guy and rawness, he comes off like decent, flat out no bs spoken guy. More so hope he has someone with backing to help during recovery and therapy. Love that Van Horn fight and story about how he was literally sitting in promoters office scratching for ANY opportunity, believed used up and half blind with weight bouncing around and just being hurt by the like of Casteneda in a shoot out. They brought him in as cannon fodder, someone forgot to tell The Blade.

    He was genuinely scary and if I was facing him I would run out of the ring If I saw him entering it. Toney handled him and he was not scared of him. Barkley had a bomb left hook and a top middleweight contender.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Iran was as tough as they come and his KO of Hearns is legendary.

    Hopefully he makes a full and speedy recovery.
