Like Canzoneri, or Bobby Garcia, or McLarnin. He isn’t as smart as they were. And I don’t think he’s as good a puncher.” Ross Heavier Ross would have a weight ad- vantage. “Not so much of an advantage as you think. I'll be about 141 and Armstrong will come in over the welterweight limit of 136. That isn’t much difference. “I'm-ready to fight him today. I'm in shape now. I never have to worry much about weight. I laid off five months after fighting Gar- cia and was just six pounds over- weight when I began training two months ago.
