I like how CutMeMick said that a Man outside the ring and inside the ring are totally different entities.

With gloves on, the transformation is phenomenal.
Crazy thing about that fight with Holyfield is Cooper was actually a last minute sub....,ON SIX days notice.
He was signed to fight Tyson when tyson had a "rib" Injury in traning.Then They went out and signed Italian cream puff Fransico Damiani ..then he dropped out.Along comes Cooper off of Good win over Tuff guy Joe Hipp. Cooper was being called "Tysonesqe" in style by some but with that cross arm Defense.
I dont think Cooper had his number per se but I have to say...and Im thinking hard but That is the worst I have ever seen Holyfield hurt in a fight after those booming right hands he was OUT.
Remember immediatley after that they called time for a Split glove.People say the break saved Evander.But on this Im biased so I dont think so .
