    That is a talent pool of boxers right there in that photo. Think the 84 and 88 team were better?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Have to say so. Save for Oscar 92' had a bit of a subpar overall professional turn up. Not at all dismissing Forrest, Austin, Byrd or even Griffin. Austin was a very solid fighter with a nice title run. Just nondescript and never crossed that big name run. Forrest took a very long time to "get going" as a pro but he also beat Mosley twice. Byrd again all the talent but always felt he was playing catch up and did not hold a consistent big run. Some of that was him being flat out dismissed early as "too small" not fan friendly etc. But he got Vitali and Tua down the road. And a 40 yr old Holyfield in a fight I like to forget . Not bad for a guy who turned pro at 168. Think he may have been screwed with Golota too. I remember the hype being so big on Eric Griffin and even Pepe Reilly on some networks and that just went so bad. Sergio Reyes was talented. Legit robbed vs Orlando Canizalez in first fight imo.

    But 84/88 with Holyfield, Roy Jones jr, Meldrick Taylor, Virgil Hill, Whitaker, Mercer, Bowe, Michael Carbajal...92 playing runner up for me
