Ezra Sellers: Chill-or-be-chilled

I've seen Ezra Sellers KO people with range finders, and I mean dead asleep. I’ve seen Ezra Sellers nearly kill IRON CHINNED Johnny Nelson. I’ve seen Ezra Sellers fold Carl Thompson over, and nearly kill him as well, and that mother ----- is as tough as they come.

With a record of 29 (KO 26) - 8 (KO 8), cruiserweight Ezra Sellers has an excitement factor of almost 92% (total knockouts divided by total fights). That puts him up there with such scintillating fighters as Julian Jackson, Julian Letterlough and Ratanapol Sor Vorapin. Herbie Hide has a 98% factor as well.

But Sellers is different from the others in that he participated in many closet classics; that is, fights that flew under the radar but were classic for their incredible action. As aficionados will recall, a few stand out including his brawls with Carl “The Cat” Thompson (one of my very favorite fighters of all time), rugged Englishman Johnny Nelson, and bomber Alex Stewart.
