Reggie Strickland is the man, I've been following him for a while. Look down the list, check out how many big names he's lost to.

He holds a win over "The World's Greatest Dad" Anthony Bonsante!!! ;)
By the way he hasn't been KOed since 1999.
That's longer than Tito, Judah, Corrales, Barrera, and about as long as Byrd. And there are many others whose last KO loss was more recent.
:) :P ;)
Boxing needs the Stricklands and UK counterpart Buckleys of the world, they are the guys the young bucks get the rounds in against, Kennibus clearly has no idea what he is talking about.
I didnt know he beat Bonsante, he also beat Brent as well, these contenders really are the cream of the crop. Whats the tagline for contender "The only difference between you and the champions is they got a shot" I think the main difference is the champions get by people like Strickland ;D
Reggie Strickland is the guy that fights to get paid, I saw him on Realsports or one of those talk shows. He says he just fights for the purse and alot of states were declining him a license to fight in their state because he is a boring boxer and back peddles all the time and seldom throws a punch. He also stated that the reason he runs is because he wants to make his career last as long as possible so he can keep getting paid.
Dean Bramhald (42-106-15) fought from 1984 to 1998 and used his ring earnings to open a string of Hair Salons across the north of England. In fact, Saddo gets a healthy discount there, I believe...
These type of fighters are the bread and butter of the sport, often fighting on 24 hours notice.
Nobby Nobbs of Birmingham has a stable of fighters just for this purpose. Among his current fighters are Howard Clarke (27-60-2) who's lost 50 of his last 51 fights - that sequence starting with a title loss to Fernando Vargas in '99 and also Brian Coleman (24-141-7) who has lost to every top British 135 - 154 pounder in the last 10 years.
Well, well, well, look who it is.Quote:

By the way, you look like James Hetfield in your av.

Immigration issues. Sorted now (I hope). As far away from Florida as possible.
This is one for BIG H...WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!!... this man NEVER beat Anthony Bonsante. On Sep. 6 '03 Bonsante won a unanimous decision over him AND even knocked him down TWICE in the 8th. Don't even think about trying to taint a pro boxer's record like that. And for the record...yes he is a very good dad.

Manning Galloway he still fighting and he is 46 years old,very impressive, he has fought Reggie Strickland

Bonsantes fellow Contender Brent Cooper lost to Strickland. The thing about Reggie is he is a good defensive fighter with little offense. Hes a good gatekeeper though for guys who want to move up in the pro ranks.
That's the guy I was thinking of ;)Quote:

And he's fought Cory Spinks and Charles Brewer so he obviously moves up and down the weights a lot.
A win and a draw with Cooper the guy with the most built up record in boxing history off of beating bums
Actually I'm unable to work after having cancer and now have severe lung damage, and I reckon I'd still be able to beat Brent Cooper!Quote:
