The only person who can say they handled Azumah barring some circumstance (like the Malaria with first Fenech fight) was Pernell Whitaker, and when you can say Sweet Pea was the only guy to definitively beat you, you can say a lot.



His story is crazy indeed, but he's going to become a footnote to it as a Fighter if he don't stay in his proper weight class.
Which is?

There was a rumor of him dropping to welter. If he can make the weight, I think he could be very dangerous at 147
