He was 6-0, with five knockouts, fighting exclusively tomato cans. One of his opponents was 0-0-0 when he fought Ed, one other had no wins, one was 1-14, one had two wins and his first opponent was 5-6. That guy was 20 years old, gave Ed a very hard time, bout went full six rounds. Ed said later he expected a much easier fight.
His third fight was the only fight against a fighter with a winning record. Fernando Montes was 18-12-1 when Ed knocked him out in the first round.
