Everyone always talks about Lloyd Honeyghan vs Donald Curry....

[LeonardW12Hagler]

But what about Marlon Starling vs Lloyd Honeyghan that was one of the best boxing masterclasses i've ever seen and arguably better than Lloyd Honeyghan vs Donald Curry i think Marlon Starling was inconsistent but he was a hell of a fighter when he was on form he had a great defense and excellent countering abilities.

Honeyghan was a shot drunk by then.

The Llyod that beat Curry would destroy Starling.

Just as Lewis never really beat Tyson or Holmes really beat Ali or Barerra really beat Hamed. They like Honeyghan either went ott a ruined themselves or they were shot for other reasons.

Your other two examples were ok but your other example was ridiculous the only reason Naseem Hamed looked good in 97-98 was because of his opposition..........

Lloyd Honeyghan may have been past his prime but Marlon Starling done a masterpiece on Lloyd Honeyghan and i think Marlon Starling was bad style match up for him and would have beat Lloyd Honeyghan at anytime in his career........

Marlon Starling gets underrated because he was often lazy and inconsistent but prime for prime he would have beat Lloyd Honeyghan again i have no doubt in my mind.

Starling's 11th round KO of Mark Breland in the first fight was another example of his ring craft ... Breland was another with an amateur record right up there next big thing since sliced bread blah blah.Starling destroyed him and he wasn't really the same after that fight even though Breland won the title back and still managed to destroy Honeyghan a few years later knocking Honey over twice with jabs
