A controversial fighter with some dubious decisions and a great looking record:

He had very little in the way of a punch (Mundine aside)

Can't beleive you put Barrie Jones in the same league as Willie Pepp!!

Gimme a break he's just an extreme example of a non-puncher doing okay at world level with a massive 0% knockout ratio

Pernell Whittaker is an exception to the rule too.

You get the point I was making though. Maybe shoudln't have included his name in list with Basilo and Pep though!

It is worth remembering though that Barry Jones - with no stoppage wins am or pro - did manage to briefly drop the hard charging Ancelio Freitas when they fought for the WBO crown. At the time the Brazilian was viewed by many as an unstoppable power punching monster.

I'd hardly heard of Fretias back when he fought Jones. his record spoke for itself though.

willi pep wanst exacly a banger was he.

the end.

OK guys there are exceptions to the rule but to even be speaking of Gavin Vs Hatton at any stage shows what potential he has got.
