In the book "In This Corner" he goes into it in some depth. Part of one long quote was "I was killing people when I was 10 years old. What's wrong with that ?"

It was some sick stuff.

For years he was known as Don Jordan from the Dominican Republic. It turns out that was another lie. He was from L.A. I would take anything Jordan said with a grain of salt.

Emile Griffith, Mike Tyson, Rubin Carter, Roberto Duran are certainly not men I consider to be "Evil". In fact in some cases it's downright insulting that you'd describe them as such. Particularly with like an Emile Griffith where you have absolutely no cause for it.

Most on the list I wouldn't classify as Evil, though a few fit the bill.

You left off a glaring omission in James Butler who is probably the most twisted bastard I've heard of in the fight game.

Quite a few guys have killed their girlfriends or wives I'm sure.

Randy Turpin shot his baby and then himself before he died. So yeah that surely could've qualified.

Anyway. To sum it up.

15 views on this video of which I'm sorry to say I've been one.

Hope you don't consider my opinion Contro-Versey-Al.
I asked for feedback and you gave me feedback. Thanks ;) Just starting a new channel hoping to have some fun. Of course there will be lots of mistakes along the way and I am sure I won't make everyone happy. Regardless of that, thanks for the feedback. Maybe I will meet you again in the comment section of another video of mine, perhaps in the future :)
“There will be mistakes along the way”

If your to have any credibility In posting videos or lists up of any description. I’d suggest making sure your list of ‘evil’ boxers is not as poor as that one. Calling someone evil has to be truly justified in my eyes. Not a word that’s should just be tossed about. Unfortunately there’s to many platforms for idiots like you to have a say and make up uneducated piss/poor video lists like you have. And fellow uneducated idiots will take that as fact. Simular to the bell ends sharing memes on Facebook/Twitter of whatever there topic is they want to get behind that Are completely made up but look legit so other idiots blindly believe it.

He had already been convicted based on evidence twice, by seperate juries. He was never found not guilty and no judge for his cases, including the one that set him free, ever suggested that he didn't do it. I just don't think he's a particularly out of place pick for this dude, someone familiar with his case could pretty reasonably believe that he did it and that would make him fit the bill

Emile Griffith is off though, maybe I'll watch some highlights of him later while blasting the Dylan song, as a simultaneous tribute to Griff and Hurricane
By the way, isn't it f*cking crazy that Carter is one of the only 2 guys that ever stopped Griffith, and he stopped him by 1st round KO?

I don't think there's footage of that fight. Must've been a hell of a shot, and he had to have caught him cold because Griffith as we all know is tough as nails.
It's on YouTube mate

I just spent 15 mins reading about him. Can’t see anything about his sentencing or if he’s still in jail. Absolute scum bag. If anyone deserves the electric chair it’s the likes of him.

If he has not be mentioned before....there's Luis Resto and his trainer Panama Lewis.
They took padding out and apparently added chalk and smashed Billy Collins to a pulp, ending his career.

Not so much evil but sick, Aslan Mukanov (I will stand by him being sick, but what he did was...well it fits in here)

Yuichiro Watanabe is worthy of a mention (article on what he did here https://www.asianboxing.info/thinking-o ... lderly-man) maybe not evil but...a complete pudendum

Resto didn't seem evil, just a simpleton easily manipulated by Lewis.

Yeah, saw a couple of documentaries on that horrible incidident and I concur, Resto was just a dumb clod used by Panama, who should be in prison (again).

Absolutely, Panama should rot in prison. While Resto seemed genuinely remorseful for what he had done and appeared very upset about the fate of Collins, Panama Lewis couldn't care less.

Gotta be rare for a guilty man to be set free after decades.
Right. Nothing to do with the song and movie. He was acquitted of the crime. I don't think that happens for guilty men.
Sure i read somewhere , not long after his release and the movie , that he admitted he done it ,
