Romeo Anaya and Shig Fukuyama were fine fighters but well past it by then.

OK, so he beat Hilmer Kenty
Brilliant, he operated pre-1985 so he gets a pass for truly terrible opposition

Oh but he fought Hilmer Kenty, another guy who really didn't beat anyone of any real note. C'mon man, you would give a modern guy all kinds of shit for fighting the people O'Grady did. I mean, damn Saul Alvarez is practically a hall of famer compared to him.
