    I did think about including him, he had to fight all over the world and finally in the later stages of his career he made the money and got the fights he deserved, early debatable points losses could have got him up there quicker, but he did get there in the end and is now rated as one of the top fighters and has the financial rewards, and thats why he was not included

    Thats very sound logic.

    The reason I feel he is unlucky is because he will not be remebered as a great.

    He will get his shot, the reason no one will fight him is because he hasn't got a decent name for himself, PPV etc are not interested, there is no money in fighting Froch, and he has had injury problems

    All those guys who fight their whole life,but never gotten any recognition mostly because they had bad management...like Baldomir without the happy ending at the end of his career...

    His last fight was on Showtime. Calzaghe doesn't want no part yet he fights the ultimate duo in Peter Manfredo and Sakio Bika. Denis Inkin blatantly ducked him twice and made bullshit injury excuses. JT would rather face a shot to fuck Jeff Lacy instead. No one will fight him.

    Since then he's fought Kessler and Hopkins and is slated to fight RJJ next. Those are/were much bigger fights. He might have made even more money for Manfredo than he would have gotten for Froch. Perhaps he should have taken a fight with Froch instead of Bika, but it's almost too late for a Froch fight now. Joe's a big earner these days.

    The "G" Man! Would have loved to see him square off against Hopkins, Roy Jones, Pavlik, Calzaghe, etc. I feel bad to see him in the condition he is now.
