Taking a bitch down 4lb in weight like that is how foolish people lose good dogs. The real truth is, if The Queen was 38 she could come up to 42.
What world middleweight boxing Champion goes down in weight to fight welter?
What world heavyweight boxing Champ goes down in weight to fight cruiser or light heavy?
Answer = no one. The truth is, in real professional fighting, if there's a weight disparity among competitors, then the littler fighter has to come UP in weight, it's as simple as that.
Ken Allen had 10x the number of huge deals, involving multi-winner to multi-winner, as JA ever thought about having. Ken (literally) had 500 dogs, and he wasn't "emotionally attached" to any of them. He had all the money he could want, and he matched anyone anywhere. To say that he "ducked" the 38 lb QOH with the 42-44 lb 10xW Tornado is utterly laughable to anyone with a brain. This is not a slam on The Queen or her owner at all. She was a great dog in capable hands. The "slam" is on the preposterous notion that KA "ducked" a 4-lb smaller dog, when he and his camp have repeatedly gone into some of the best dogs in history at even weight.
The truth is, the dogs were too far apart in weight. And the other truth is Tornado's name is the one who holds THE highest mark in bitch history ... not The Queen's.
At the end of the day, only the people from The Queen's camp think about Tornado ... the remaining people from Tornado's camp (whom I know personally) don't think about The Queen at all
AND they've matched into as good, and in many cases better dogs than The Queen, over and over again, for longer than you've been alive
