Hilton declined after this fight . Two more defences and his tittle reign was finished. Took a beating for 12 rounds against another Philly fighter in Robert Bam Bam Hines and he was never the same again . Unfortunate because up until this fight with Drayton he looked like he was going to be a superstar 🥊
Matthew and the late Joe Frazier may his soul rest in peace had the best hooks in boxing..Fighter today don't know the importance of the body shot..It a saying you can duck a punch to the head but you can't duck a body shot..It takes away your legs makes you weaker and you can even knock a fighter out with a body shot..
i remember this fight. true story this was the same year hagler leonard and because of leonards name they made that fight of the year. biggest joke ever. this brawl blew it away.. this was a fight leonard danced like the coward he was but then he got his ass busted by camacho and norris
