WBC ranked no18 heavyweight

Post by Old bones Ian »

Well I have now seen the future of the heavyweights Bronco Billy Wright. The WBC have him in there top 20 heavyweights, I am weeping as I type that.

He looks a tad heavy but nothing that a decent 8 week camp wont sort out

Yes he did, got stopped in 2. And retired after Tony Tucker beat him. He came back years later, like a poor mans George Foreman. He's 49 now, and fairplay that he can throw a punch of sorts. But to rank the guy is ridiculous.

I've spent over a year in Bolivia and it's a really poor country. Goodness knows what he gets paid for that. Maybe it's just a means to an end. I mean, he's somehow ended up with a ranking and a belt.

Actually my favourite part of the fight is when Torres gets knocked down, and his own cornerman just picks up his camera wanders over and takes a photo of him laid out!!

Remember him KOd in 2 by Michael Moorer on the Bowe/Holyfield I undercard in 1992! Was also KOd in 1 by the corpse of Tony Tucker. Great to see the integrity of the WBC is still intact post-Suilaman Sr.

He is a mormon, probably doing missionary work there.

There are small populations of mormons living in Bolivia, particularly the lowlands (which is where Wright's been fighting.) I see he's had about five fights there now according to Boxrec.
