Still we missed what would have been some good fights at least style match ups with: Mesi, Guinn, Sam Peter, et al. Mesi always came to fight and had some very solid power, he was a shite BOXER but always fun to watch. Guinn just didn't have the drive to do harm to anyone, he would tighten up and stop throwing punches, he COULD HAVE been a solid fighter, he had a hell of a chin. Sam Peter IMO reached his full potential...he got a little too heavy but he did what he could with what he had.

That era of heavyweight prospects just did so little though...out of that group only Sam Peter, DaVaryl Williamson, Sultan Ibragimov, Ruslan Chagaev, Jameel McCline, and Juan Carlos Gomez fought the Klitschko's. Everyone else faded away quickly.
