Luther McCarty Revisited

Because someone requested it, here is my version of Luther McCarty's ratings. I've read and re-read all the original source material I could find on the guy and gave this considerable thought. McCarty was a big tough farmboy who could box pretty well. He had a good chin and pretty quick reflexes, and he threw a lot of accurate punches. However, I don't think he had true knockout power, not the one-punch variety anyhow. It's impossible to say how he would have progressed had he not died in that Calgary ring.
