Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while. Looked up his record online. Forgot that he and "Paz" had a trilogy with Vinny winning twice.

Haugen also had scored a split decision win over Hector "Macho" Camacho and then lost to Camacho by split decision in the next fight.

He TKO'd Ray "Boom Boom" Mancini and got TKO'd by the great Julio Cesar Chavez.

That's all in addition to being in the ring with Sweet Pea (whom he went the distance with).

Quite the resume.
