Tony Ayala dead.

[Vendettos]

Tony 'El Torito' Ayala Jr.

Was very good, but was 'not' great, or at least up to the point where
he went on vacation.

There was a lot 'es muy mucho' of false publicity being tossed around about his
so-called and infamous sparring-sessions.

In November 1982, I watched him sparring at Resorts International in Atlantic City, New Jersey -
just before he went away to New Jersey Camp for 'misguided people'.

He was 'small'. He was shorter than his Manager/Trainer - Lou Duva.

'El Torito' was no real Light-Middleweight. He was a 'pudgy' kid who looked like he needed to
lose about 12 lbs. of 'baby fat'.

Damn, older brother Sammy Ayala was a better talent, but he too had a bad streak with 'Mr. Brownstone'.

Sammy was not a better talent and he fought nearly no one

In 26 fights the best records he faced were 10-1-0 and 10-2-0 and thats was it.

The combined record of his latest 3 fights was 41-23-4 and the last guy he fought was 2-17-1 in his last 20 fights.

he was also stopped twice in his short career at mediocre level.

The last guy to stop him was a dreadful fighter who ended his career 9-7-1.
