Curry has just started down the back 9 when he fought Honeyghan and Honeyghan was at his peak. Beating Curry was a heck of an achievement for Honeyghan. Curry was still a pretty good fighter at that point, but he never beat a top level fighter after the Honeyghan fight. Rossi was not top level. At their respective bests, Curry was better. Starling at his peak, when Curry fought him, was a better fighter than Honeyghan, no disrespect to Honeyghan. Curry beat him twice...the first fight being when he only had 14 pro fights...and this was the Marlon Starling who would go on to beat Mark Breland.
