Whatever happened to _______?
Just for general purposes I figured that I'd start this thread for people to ask about fighters, trainers, refs, promoters anyone that has anything to do with boxing.
I'll start Kid Diamond, whatever happened to that dude? I heard him mentioned on FNF but I can't remember seeing him fighting recently.

Malik Scott. At one point he was the dullest heir apparent to the throne of Great American Heavyweight. Then he wasn't about anymore.

Re: Whatever happened to _______?
How about Roman Karmazin ? He was a weird buzzard lookin fuck, but he was a good fighter. Beat Ouma, and beat Spinks and got robbed. Last fight he fought some prospect or something and was dropped but pulled it out of the fire. Haven't seen him on TV since. He'd be a good test for Angulo or Kirkland.

El Gamo. I really liked that fella. Maybe he just switched his name and I've been interacting with him this whole time.

He'll be back. Where ever he went it was for the best. He was starting to look a bit lazy in there.

Last I remember seeing him he got his ass handed to him by DeMarco.
Also the so called win over Huerta is one of the worst decisions I've seen.
Full on robbery for me...

Re: Whatever happened to _______?
TurdSack JaenDamn (guy who fought JMM) thought he was entertaining.
Ricardo Torres (fought Cotto & Holt) a time bomb and very entertaining.
Ty Fields :-X
Ahmed Koddur :-\
Dmitry Pirog so he sparks Jacobs out and then what?
Grzegorz Proksa really thought he'd be known by now.
Librado Andrade really likeable guy. A possible rematch vs. Steiglitz for a title this time?

Re: Whatever happened to _______?
Whatever happened to Tuesday Night Fights on the USA network? That show was quality much superior to anything ESPN has done when it comes to boxing on basic cable. I remember watching it every week in the 90s and then 1 day it got cancelled. It was on the USA network for years.

Boxrec has Dmitry Pirog scheduled to fight Javier Francisco Maciel on March 26th. Never heard of him, but he's 18-1 with 12 KO's. All of his fights have been in Argentina, probably why I've never heard of him.
Terdsak fought 6 times in 2010, won 5 by stoppage and one via UD. His opponents all had fairly average records going into the fights, the last one was Sonny Manakane, who went in with a 13-7-1 record

Re: Whatever happened to _______?

Smoked by Junior Witter so we knew he was never going to be a champion again.

He either promotes or holds Amateur Boxing Events.
At that time he had just held one in Calgary, Alberta.

I could watch Terry Norris fight all day, he was beautiful to watch and just so damn good and entertaining. Never ever in a poor fight and was exciting and his hand speed, balance and combinations were flawless.

Too bad that never went down. I'd personally fly to wherever they staged the fight, just to gloat over Holmes getting KTFO'ed and carted out of the ring. I've never been able to stomach the dude.

generalbulldog the heavyweight division is no different than when Lennox Lewis was running things you've got dominant champs (the Klitschko's) and everyone else in the division is too old, too untested, or just simply not good enough to bother them and the worst thing is the untested fighters are REFUSING to step up.

Oh come on, Lewis had way better competition when he was champ. You forgot Lewis was part of the 2nd greatest HW era, which would be the 90s. That comment was almost as bad as when you said Wlad would beat Ali easily because Ali was the equivalent of Chris Byrd.

I forgot no such thing, I was merely pointing out the end of Lewis' reign had a poor pool of talent. Sure guys liek Ruiz and Byrd had earned their title shots, but obviously neither would have posed any threat to Lennox. The same is true right now, though most fighters haven't earned their title shots and the ones that have just refuse to take the final step.
The division has ALWAYS been filled with inconsistancy, lackluster performers, and faded talent it'll still have some decent fights, but you're going to have to look for them. The last top heavyweight fights I've seen were Lewis-Vitali and Brewster-Liakhovich.

Re: Whatever happened to _______?
hahaha i always like dboth fighters...........tough to pick 1 for me. would be sad to see either lose, and at age 60, would be really, really sad to see any pnsihment there.
