Curious if anyone can give me a recap of this fight--all i know is that Curry lost by kayo--was it competitive or a blowout for the Body Snatcher?

Curry seemed back to pre Honeyghan form and was winning the fight fairly easily...

Then McCallum threw a haymaker that everybody saw except the man who had to duck the punch!

It was actuaslly a right hand that hurt McCallum the most. Had him wobbly for a short time.

It was a long right hand which buckled McCallum's legs, during the 2nd or 3rd round. Curry just dropped inside, and came out with his guard down. Sweeping left hook from McCallum, bang...........Down.

Round two is when his legs dipped, if memory serves me right.

I think that was it actually.

This fight really was the begining of the end for Curry as a high class operator. While many would say the Honeyghan defeat, I disagree as he had an excuse with making 147lbs. After his defeat to McCallum, it must have seriously demoralised him as he was performing well for as long as the fight lasted, unlike the Honeyghan defeat when he was as good as "owned".

Curry was doing ok but working hard to do it. McCallum was gonna win that fight one way or another.

Rumours went around that he was bi-sexual. I'm pretty sure he fathered a couple of kids.

seriously! I heard a rumor about a year ago, that he was a big time fudge packer.

I also read in an interview that when Honeyghan saw him in a Las Vegas gym, that Curry looked right through him, basically ignoring him, and then said something (to LH) to the effect of, "you ruined my career" and then he walked off.

Does anyone know how Curry is doing mentally or financially?

A friend of mine said he saw Curry at the boxing hall of fame inductions a couple of years ago. Didn't say he saw anything wrong with him. Think he said something about Basilio calling him gay or something like that.

Ask Marlon Starling, or Bruce Curry, maybe they would know.

Where did the Curry being gay rumours originate from?.

There doesn't seem to be any sort of proof whatsoever.
