    Agree and I guess it applies to every Jr. out there. They have the father's name so imagine the pressure they have to carry .

    Theres no competition for this one. Has to be the one and only Audley Harrison, no one in the history of boxing has been so overly hyped and so embarrassingly been exposed!! imo

    I dont think folks over in america realise how much over hyped he was but here in the Uk it was a daily barrage of bullshit untill he got knocked out.

    I am an Aussie but i was in the UK in 2001 to see Fraudly's first fight against some poor janitor. Your right about the bullshit being talked about him. I remember one commentator saying he is like Lewis but better. That he'd be champ within 10 fights....
    Millions watched that first fight, we even had the big screen showing it in the pub i was living in.

    I wouldn't write off Chavez jr he seems to be improving every fight. He knocked out an undefeated albeit unknown fighter in Loriga last time out and he seems to have the heart for it IMO. Also I wouldn't say all Juniors turn out that bad look at Roy Jones and Floyd Mayweather there sons both turned out half decent lol.

    On a serious note though Ordinary Harrison has to be the winner and worse still is I heard the other day that his handlers are trying to line him up for a world title fight soon. How? I'll never know but nothing suprises me any more.

    Sure, considering he has no amateur history. Imagine an amateur with around 30 fights getting into the ring with the pros and having people want to see them fight #1 ranked opponents.
