    His biggest weakness was between the ears.

    True he was very fragile mentally.

    Watched Milton McCrory fight and he was a very good fighter. Just makes what Curry did to him that much more special.

    Bittersweet fight for me as I was a fan of Cobra but became a fan of bodysnatcher later.

    Oddly enough McCallum never was a one punch knock out artist and that was the only time he did it.

    McCallum also had a solid chin and he was rocked by Curry in the 2nd round. Julian Jackson could not do that.

    That was fun fight!

    6 weeks after Chavez fights Hector Camacho!

    That was a warm up fight.

    Classic.

    I know mental isn't it? I love the way Mitchell needs to use the corner not only to reorient himself but to use like a zimmer frame to get up. Chavez must look at JR and shake his head inside

    Carlos Ortiz was one of the great ones. His trilogy with Ismael Laguna was classic back in the day.
