I haven't dived to deep into him, so I mainly want OJ's opinion here. I was surprised to learn he has quite a bit of footage on tape, so I want to know if he's a contender. He has a really strong rep especially with the folks who used to watch him in germany but the footage isn't there. I really love him vs. Czeslaw and based on that I could see putting him above someone like Pete Roberts.

Extremely talented guy, but I don't think I ever saw him have a truly great match. He was under utilised in Great Britain and was sill having good matches right up to the end of television with Roach vs. Martin being the last bout to air on ITV. There's no way I would rank him about Roberts, though I do think they were contemporaries in terms of skill.

I think there are one or two more on @sergeiSem's old Youtube channel, possibly vs people like Haystacks or Kirk.

I'm not logged into my own Youtube account so looking up his old channel would be a bit of a mission, especially at work with 4min of break left.  I'll check it out tonight.

I personally vote him vs Marty Jones first fight at the RAH but you won't like the No Contest Refused TKO finish, OJ.
