Comments on: Donald Curry – The Lone Star Cobra http://theboxingmagazine.com/2010/04/19/donald-curry-%e2%80%93-the-lone-star-cobra/ Mon, 09 Apr 2012 22:09:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Scott http://theboxingmagazine.com/2010/04/19/donald-curry-%e2%80%93-the-lone-star-cobra/comment-page-1/#comment-253 Scott Thu, 29 Apr 2010 15:00:46 +0000 http://theboxingmagazine.com/?p=542#comment-253 I loved watching Donald Curry back in the day! At one point, he was definitely the best fighter in the world. At his best, he'd beat a lot of top fighter from a variety of eras. If you had a good chin and some power, I think that was the combination needed to beat him (at his best). You didn't have to necessarily be the better boxer, but you have to be able to hand in there and let him know you had enough power to hurt him. He's the kind of fighter that you had to put a dent in his confidence - otherwise, he seemed to grow stronger.

One footnote on both (McCrory) fighters- they had solid chins until dropped. Both had a propensity to stay down. Nice write-up on the Cobra.
