gnasher16 31,602 Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2012 remember watching him in the 80s against livingstone bramble and hector camacho. looked a tough rugged fighter. think he fought 1 of the feeney brothers but didnt see it. look forward to reading the book. He fought George Feeney must of been around 84 it was the only time he fought outside America think it was in Italy or Spain i forget now.....yes he was a rugged fighter he was happy to take 3 punches to land 1 of his own which usually makes for exciting fights.....he was pretty much finished by the time he fought Bramble/Camacho i dont think he was ever the same fighter after Kims death.

gnasher16 31,602 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 i was telling my brother about this book an he says boom boom got over a broken kneck gnash Ray never broke his neck Hitcher...........I think your brothers probably confusing him with Vinny Paz who broke his neck as a youngster......easy mistake to make though he was a similar type of fighter from the same era 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
