    You know it.Loved his frontal style.Took his share of licks though,Villasana comes to mind but he got him back.

    Was ringside for his fight with Steve Robinson.Think it was voted domestic fight of the year.

    Total war!

    Seemed to be his way yeah.I caught him on the tail end overhere.They had a spell when one of the cable channels would show 'Sky TV'...I think that was it?Everything was taped delayed by weeks and put on in the wee hours of the A.M.The first fight with Villasana was just brutal.Looked as if he had gone head first through a car windshield after but man he was all heart.Have not seen the Robinson fight,have to find it.
