I don't know, but the guy or guys must have power.

Thats weird because he's officially only been knocked down once in his career, and that was when he was kickboxing, as far as I know.

GL: There were rumblings that he wasn't doing too well and was getting dropped in sparring. Do you believe that to be true and do you believe it had something to do with him not moving forward with this fight?

HR: "Definitely. I don't know what you heard, but I heard he got knocked out in the gym. You can't get concussions when you're getting in the ring with one of the best punchers at heavyweight.



"I heard Travis Walker knocked him out and I'll have to get back to you with the other name. These guys might be good prospects or whatever, but they shouldn't be knocking out the heavyweight champion of the world in the gym."
