Tony Ayala, Jr.?

[killersheep]

Ayala was a douche bag, who couldn't control himself. Considering that, in the ring he would have got slaughtered by Hearns, Leonard etc. etc.

I hope he gets raped at least weekly in prison.

He was good but not as good, as the hype suggests. I see him badly hurt and dropped by a journeyman Mario Maldonado. He did show good recovery powers in that fight, but that also showed he was very beatable. To me he just seemed like a good pressure fighter, with good power.

But thats about it he wasn't anything special IMO, he did have a good Amateur background so i heard. I've even heard he gave Pipino Cuevas, a bit of a lesson in sparring when he was only 14 years old. But to me he seems to be more a myth.

Ouch!!

I saw him fight many times and thought his only negative was his stability factor. There are films of him sparring with Cuevas and he looked to have great skills at such a young age. My thinking is that had he been brought along carefully, he would have been a champion in an era of great champions. He was that GOOD!

As for the other, this is about boxing so I'll not comment.

Yeah, I'd heard he was really something else coming up. I agree with Lucier about him fight Ray too. Seems like he would have been made to order for Hearns as well.

Too bad for him (and more so his victims) he basically threw his life away.
