One of the Vancouver Canucks' first American born players. Craig Coxe. He was known for his fists than his scoring ability. Most memorable fight I remember was with the late Bob Probert on the Detroit Red Wings in 1985. Coxe and Probert went at it for five non-stop minutes.
Too bad Kordic isn't alive to defend himself. I think John hurt Coxe more than he'll admit and Craig can't deal with the fact Kordic "with his soft punches (what a load of bullshit that is!)" beat him. Any fighter should know you win some you lose some. I have more respect for the guy that can admit defeat over the guy that's full of excuses.
Here is the question. If what Coxe says is true, then why did he go down in the fight with Kordic? Watch a replay. Kordic, dings him, he looks rattled, then after another blow, he finally goes down and it isn't from a loss of balance.
As for going to the dressing room? So what? A lot of fighters do that or have done that. Kordic won the fight and his so called 'punches without power' certainly put Coxe on the ice.
What are you guys talking about? Coxe is funny as hell, reminiscing of his past. The fucking dude can say WHATEVER he wants. He would come off as a douche if he was talking about how Kordic was a roid pumping coke head ... but he didn't
Ummmm, which fight are you talking about Craig?? Kordic punched the shit outta you. You didn't even land one on him. You folded like a lawn chair..... Wow, glad to see your ego hasn't changed at all!
I'm a huge fan of both John Kordic and Craig Coxe. But Craig Coxe did take off his helmet when he battled John Kordic. Plus, even though Coxe did get busted open by Kordic and was the one to somewhat go down first, I feel that the fight was almost dead even. But I must say, that I'm surprised that Coxe would actually bash a fellow enforcer, especially John Kordic who was one of the best! God Bless You John Kordic!
Before anyone sides with this moron (Coxe) they should check out the Kordic fight with Wendel Clark. And there was a scrap with Joe Paterson where Kordic hits him so hard that Paterson topples over on his back despite having been leaning forward while exchanging punches with Johnny.
Big talk, Craig. Easy to do when the guy you're dissing isn't around anymore to make you eat his fists...again!
What a fucking cunt Coxe is. He goes out of his way to show what a fucking dickhead he is.

@SuperStrik9 -- i totally agree... Kordic was way more feared than Coxe.

@NHLbrawler Totally Kordic>Coxe. Coxe's big claim to fame was getting tuned by Probert multiple times.

Kordic was a way better scrapper and was miles tougher than Craig ''the punching bag'' Coxe.

Coxe took on all comers but he got beat silly by Kordic. Bleeding nose does not automatically mean you lost a fight at all.
