Boxing could be so strange 30 years ago. (At least compared to now)

In 1991...Randall was a top 10-15 contender with over 40 fights...then over a 15 month period leading into a big fight versus Edwin Rosario....he fought in succession:

Martin Cruz. 0-6
Juan Zuniga. Pro Debut!!!!
Refugio Guerrero. 1-4
Juan Nunez. 0-14
