I think rahman didn't even start training for boxing until he was 20, he ended up doing pretty well, sure lewis underestimated him but he did win that fair and square, i guess the rest of his career was fairly average though barring a few nice wins.


martin rogan also started in either his late 20s or early 30s, he wasnt a world champion but he did win the british title i think and won a ud v audley harrison
