Puerto Rican scumbag Luis Resto, along with trainer Panama Lewis, did the deed. Billy Collins Junior suffered.neil r wrote:can someone please remind me who were the boxers involved in a fight in america about 20 years ago when the "winner" was found to have taken the padding out his gloves.

"Panama Lewis also produced a mysterious bottle that seemed to revive Pryor late in the Arguello fight, no one knows what was in the bottle"
Sugar and water apparently.
Collins crashed his bike after a drinking session. Still remember the pictures of his face after the fight - looked like he'd been beaten with a baseball bat.
