An Elegy To Alexis Arguello

[greynotsoold]

He knocked out Kevin Rooney with as pretty a right hand as you'll ever see.

Mr. Argeullo was a gentlemen that exploded in the ring just as you thought you had his number, you would be looking for the truck that hit you. He never had a bad thing to say about anyone and his temperment outsidethe ring would make a priest at times opt for an anger management class. Just kidding you robed warriors. I watched just about every one of his televised fights and never saw him in a bad fight or get angry. It was pure skill and training that got him to the title and other fighters could do much worse than emulating a true gentleman like Alexis Arguello, rest in peace.
