Re: RIP Jose Napoles
Reading his boxing career and he was an amazing fighter. Castro banned boxing so Napoles had to leave and become a Mexican citizen. Jose had some good knockouts on his record and travelled the world winning the welterweight title in Japan.
Napoles fought the great Monzon at middleweight which was probably a crazy thing to do in retrospect and lost to our John H Stracey in an upset.
Got to find some of his fights he seemed like a big puncher.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
