Clowns are different from showboaters.

Ali, SRL & Kid Gavilan were showboaters, but they had style, grace & panache.

Audley 'Parcel Force' Harrison is a clown.

He gives it the big chat, then has 1 or 2 fights year for 5 years, finally steps up in class, then reveals himself to be a spineless waster, with zero stamina; that's what I call a clown.
