He's interviewed on youtube and claims to have lost a decision to Donald Curry(never happened) and to have fought Marlon Starling twice-I only find one bout between them. He also says he dropped Hearns 3 times when they fought-didn't drop him even once in reality. Has anyone here watched this interview ? Interviewer gave him a pass on all these claims.

It doesn’t seem unusual for fighters to get facts about their own fights wrong or exaggerated. Listened to many podcasts over the years with fighters and heard quite a few say things that are clearly not true. Whether that’s on purpose or just can’t remember I don’t know. The obvious one was Cooper dining out for years on the mythical torn glove incident.

He never even fought Curry.
