GB5 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I called him "the grapler" when he was a Canuck. His fights were kind of embarrassing. I guess the good thing was he at least showed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always had his head down and threw wild punches until the other guy threw him off balance and he fell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood why Hordi was every called a heavy. He was 6'1 210 on a good day. That was considered heavy weights size 20-30 years ago, but definitely not now.
