    Saw Van Horn fight in the late 80's/early 90's. Good boxer, always came to fight.

    Darrin is a nice man, he rented a car from my company in Houston in the early 90s. Darrin represent boxing in a respectful way.

    Met Darrin at the post office while I was putting together eBay orders. Very interesting dude. Real modest guy and down to earth.

    I saw many of Darrin's fights in the 80s and was a big fan of his. He is a class gentleman. This is a really interesting commentary by him. I respect him even more after viewing this video.

      I know you are correct. Few could stand up to their punching power.

    I like the part where he said, " I am going to hit you, and you are going to hit me". I promise you one thing, if he does not want you to hit him YOU WONT!!!! Much RESPECT

    Good pro. Beat 'Bam Bam' Hines for the light middle title and then beat Lindell Holmes for the super middleweight. He was scheduled to fight Nigel Benn in the UK but he retired to become a State Trooper.

    Great boxer. The refs and trainers let him fight too much at too young an age, in my opinion.

    • @QueensNativeNYC
      @QueensNativeNYC 3 года назад

      Well that's what it's all about, you have to do it at a young age.. I mean you certainty have no chance doing it at an old age.. Maybe he was pushed a little too much too fast, but hey, they were hungry for a white fighter in those days..

    • @QueensNativeNYC
      @QueensNativeNYC 3 года назад +2

      They should've kept him away from Iran Barkley for sure.. He actually could've beat Barkley if he fought a smarter fight.. Barkely was just nearly punched out and exhausted when he stopped Van Horn, but Van Horn insisted on keep slugging it out with Barkely, big mistake that was, and it put School boy out of the picture for good..
