Anyone know anything about Baek?

Seems like the guy could really bang.

Anyone?

I never understood how the koreans, this guy and Chong Pal-Park, and maybe a Japanese or two, were among the first to compete in the SUPER MIDDLE division, and then quickly lost ground and now I dont see any.

168 pound korean fighters are kind of rare now, I think.

I remember Chong Pal-Park better than In Chul Baek, but they were both VERY GOOD.
Actually the most I remember about In Chul Baek is that he beat Chong.

Was he the same guy who fought Julian Jackson at middleweight ?

Actually, there were a feew good koreans from welter through to super-middle in the 1980s.
Maybe there still are.

Still unreasonably curious about Baek. No idea why.

Kind of sucks that he met Jackson in what was probably Jackson's peak performance. He had a great jab and movement and everything!

Sorry to go against the grain here, but I never thought much of Baek. I just thought he was a protected fighter with a padded record, like Yori Boy Campas. Julian Jackson used him to pick up some title after failing in his first challenge of Mike McCallum, the same way Ray Mancini used Art Frias after failing against Arguello.
