The story goes he gave up golf and then battered Omar Sheika and the rest is history.

He is given alot of stick for the Starie fight . His local paper had it a 1 point win for Joe but I think Starie was an awkward under rated fighter . Joe was meant to impress on the Tyson undercard and it was never gonna happen against Starie who IMO beat Otke and holds a win over Clinton Woods .

He got his form back vs Sheika but fragile hands will always be a problem or he would have laid Manfeddo out instead of throwing flurries . Bika had a hard head too and Joe had a tough night there too . Joes not a bad banger though . He had Eubank down and if it werent for his hands hed be putting these guys away . Training in a rotton shed doesnt help either . He says the extra 6 pounds vs Hopkins will increae his punch power . . . we'll see .
