Really sad to hear about this.

Hi.

The defensive skills this guy had were an absolute treat to witness . He also had good pop in that left hand . It was clear he got into Oscar's head like no ever had before or after in one of my favorite fights ever. In my opinion , he was the best of that '84 Olympic squad .
Sweet Pea was one of the most naturally gifted boxers of the last 30 years. He achieved a lot of great things in his career, but winning the IBF Lightweight Title against the very tough Greg Haugen, was the standout performance for me.

I was just watching highlights of his fights literally some hours ago. Really sadest news in a while, he was one my most favourite warriors.
Especially the way he passed away is tragic.
One of the greatest ever. Top20 easy. Never lost to anyone. He outboxed one of the best boxers ever in Chavez Sr., top p4p at the time, won comfortably and got robbed. The SD vs Ramirez was also a robbery and he settled the score right in the rematch.
RIP champ, you will be missed, as you were missed as a boxer all these years.
