Names were synonymous with it?

No obvious choices, please.

Prince Charles Williams came as ready for war as any fighter who ever lived.

His first fight with Sosa was one of the most brutal I've ever seen. Then there's Sosa II, Angulo, the two Czyz fights..

Basically every other fight he was ever in.

Ezra Seelers was one. Carl Thompson was another. Alex Stewart had some good go-arounds. Boza Edwards had some exciting fights.

Thanks, Drew.

What wars the fighters participated in would be good too. Half looking for fights to dig up with this thread.

Here's a "local boy" shout: Bryon Mackie.

You may have seen him on FNF/Gatti undercard in very spirited losing efforts to Ray Oliveira, Hector Camacho Jr and John Duddy. I saw him in a bloody knockdown/drag out with a Trinidad sparring partner (Johnny Rivera) and he had a number of Canadian domestic-level scraps that were well spoken of.

Didn't always win, cut easily and didn't quit.

A fine photo of a bloody Mackie by a friend of mine from the Rivera fight:

What's this dude's story? I saw the epic Choi thread in the Brit forum. He's a local hero of some sort? I see he only loses when stepping up.

the wars he had with sosa were some of the damndest brawls ive ever seen....i dont think these fights get enough mention...the second fight with sosa finished prince charles for good.....sosa prolly came close to killing him in this fight...prince charles absorbs a sick combination in a corner for the stoppage and is carried out on a stretcher...damn good fights:shock::shock:
