Cooney was a good fighter that got beaten by an ATG in Holmes...Funny years after Cooney said that they altered their fight plan to last 15 rounds...so instead of being the seek and destroy guy that wacked out Lyle and Norton, Cooney tried to become a boxer and Holmes made him look silly...Honestly looking at Cooney's career he caught Norton, Lyle and Young on their downsides, if you look at his other opponents its as hard to find a recognizable name as it is to find some he beat with a winning record ....Cooney was a B level fighter with great power nothing more...
