He was a huge puncher at 175.
How good was he at the weight and how does he fare against:
Foster
Spinks
Saad
Qawi
Eddie M M
Hill
Jones
Toney
Moorer as a LHW
I have a few of Moorers Light-Heavyweight fights on tape and he was indeed a savage puncher. he also seemed a lot quicker, busier and aggressive than his later Heavyweight days.
Having said all that he never really faced anyone of note at 175lbs and claimed making the weight was slowly killing him. Maybe if the much talked about fight with Virgil Hill had happened it would have told us a lot more about his ability at 175lbs.
But I think it would be safe to say he would have been a dangerous underdog against the above list.
