I always associated him with the Warren Zevon song Boom Boom Mancini:

 

When Alexis Arguello gave Boom Boom a beating

Seven weeks later he was back in the ring

Some have the speed and the right combinations

If you can't take the punches it don't mean a thing

Great tune.

 

Although I was just a kid, I just remember the one Arguello/Aaron Pryor fight being like the best fight I ever saw.

 

Damn, it's tough to come out the fight game unscathed, either physically, mentally, or both.
