yeah he did fold up against davis and starling the first time, but I think it was a lack of chin in both instances rather than the balls. I dont know what you think. But than again maybe your right, he had already won a gold medal, been on magazine and media covers, done a hollywood film, and already had a world title and $60,000 a year annuity that he has to this day
Yes, I followed his career on ABC/USA TNF.. He was too nice, & lacked the testicular fortitude to win a tough grueling fight.. Ala, the Davis & Starling fights.. I actually was a huge fan of Breland, & think he gets dissed too much.. He was a two time champion, even though the champions he beat were subpar..
how was breland too nice for the sport? u obviously didnt see him half murder honeyghan or mutilate lee or ozaki? Breland was a brutal puncher but he was esoteric he had interests in acting,poetry and had a brain. he could have been a success outside boxing more so than many. But too nice? no he could be nasty
@gameboy010203 Relax, fanboy! I was merely making a joke. I like Breland.

Marlong Starling was an excellent fighter. He and Curry deserve to be inducted into the hall of fame.
