    His signature KO was a thing of beauty, but I think he got beat by Johnny Nelson who was basically having a bit of a giggle up at heavy.
    When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough

    Anyone losing to Nelson at heavyweight needs to retire.

    got round to watching the videos, I agree it is a good fight, it slows down a bit in the middle but Jimmy thunder looks like he was a pretty entertaining fighter, seems like he was fairly slow but he was strong ! The 3 second ko was great... Sure thunder never made it super far but looks like he was a lot of fun and makes for a good highlight compilation on youtube... also he is the cousin of the rock.

    Thunder was exciting, strong, and could knock you the fuck out or GET knocked the fuck out at any moment. I like unpredictable matches like that. Who wants to watch May weather vs Berto? So predictable!

    Thunder was fun TV. He fought like a caveman honestly but he ran deep in competition very early on. Also holds the unique distinction of being only 1 of 2...maybe 3 guys to ever legitimately knockdown one of THE best heavyweight chins ever, Marion Wilson! He had a great run after coming to the States and the "win" loss as late sub v cruiserweight Wanyama was flat out bizarre. He was schooled though.

    My old boxing coach once said before you throw punches first fasten that left heel to the floor that's what jimmy thunder was good at.
