Just so I get this straight...in your opinion...other than the Calzaghe fight, a draw with Soliman, & MAYBE the fight against Beyer...what makes him a bum? Because clearly...he isn't.

Also...if you start comparing apples to apples...Ouma stayed on his feet against Taylor...but was knocked out by a legit bum named Silva & beaten by a much lesser man in Karmazin.

I agree with you on Malinaggi.
just want to say that you cannot use the karmazin and silva fights as a measure of how good ouma is. he was waaay off against karmazin he looked like he was sick, and i didnt see the silva fight obviously but from what ive read it was a big fluke. ouma was absolutely on there to fight and win against taylor, even though he wasnt able to get his punch output really going because every time he planted his feet and tried to punch, taylor was nailing him with huge power shots. taylor did mess up though, he went for the ko early and spent too much energy, giving ouma a chance to get into the fight late. thats how i saw it.
