Barry, you missed a fighter who I would have in my top 20. The Venezuelan Jr. Welter champ Carlos Hernandez whose power was absolutely chilling. Knocked out Joe Brown, Teo Cruz, Davey Moore (broke his jaw), Kenny Lane, Bunny Grant, Alfredo Urbina, Paolo Rosi (KO, not cuts) and Baby Vasquez. These g...

Re: re
As I stated above...why did Jones not test positive in the tests given by the sanctioning body, the WBA? And why did he not fail the tests given by the WBC...IBA and IBC? The IBF test result, if they are not just flat out lying, is almost certainly a false positive, which occurs quite often with dr...

Re: re
Silky---For starters...,it's funny that you dropped completely out of the thread when you could not prove anything back about 8, or 10 days ago and now you want to try to pretend like you found something...LOL!!! All I have to say about that is IBF...the same IBF who's president was put in prison.....

Re: re
All I could really find was an interview with Richard Hall accusing Jones of using steroids. While possible, I just couldn't find any hard evidence of this. Sounds like more Internet gossip than anything. No, that's not a mere rumor ... that interview was in the wake of the Jones/Hall title fight i...

Well then, if you saw "documents" and it was reported in papers then it should be no problem for you to copy and paste it from somewhere and prove us wrong. Don't know where you're from, but that story would be big news here, even a bigger story than Toney testing positive. So again, if y...

Re: re
Nazarov was a hell of a fighter! He put it on Gamache nearly as good as Gatti did and he beat some really good fighters. I was surprised when Jean-Baptiste Mendy beat him! IMO he put it on Gamache better than Gatti did as Gamache was closer to his prime, in a proper weight class, and the fight was ...
