    Meldrick was tough, but he also wasn't tough, He couldn't take the shots so he isn't physically tough, but mentaly he was up there. If this is about mentality then Roy Jones would have to be up there as well, he took an absolute beating before Glen Johnson knocked him out, and he took a lot of cheap shots when you look back, I just was watching Jones-Tarver I, and Jones in the first round gets a forehead right in the kisser, and he doesn't seem to bothered by it, In that fights he gets hit by a lot of tough shots to the body and upstairs. He was also hit by a perfect elbow from Julio Gonzalez if I remember correctly, and it didn't even phase him.

    Mamby fought in the Cayman Islands in March. It was a sanctioned fight not an exibition. Mamby went 10 rounds and became the oldest fighter to compte at age 60. I was on the card that night. He was a cool guy,real intelligent in and out of the ring.

    That is unbelievable.Thanks for the 1st person account.It must be genetics or something it the water to still be able to pass a physical and compete for 10 rounds.The man has only been stopped one time,And out of all the top names it was against string bean hitter Derrel coley no less ??I hope he did it out of passion for the sport as opposed to the need for money though.

    He said its not about the money, he just truly believes he can still do it...I hope he doesnt fight again but I wouldnt be surprised if he does.
