    Prince was the man.

    Like a pop star, he was adored by many and hated by at least as many. He sure knew how to create buzz

    Jones-McKinney was a banger too on the undercard from what I remember.

    Yes. Jones blew it but STILL somehow parlayed that loss into a title shot Vs Erik Morales at 126.

    McKinney for his part was touted over and over as a future Prince opponent but got overlooked as"too dangerous" before being destroyed by Espinosa.

    You look at the shit he got away with then and think of how LITTLE he'd have to do today.

    Back then you still had to "go to America" etc.

    Today he'd be fighting Roger Ramirez for £100m a pop in Saudi .
