No he is NOT! He is a throw back warrior. Mayorga would still be champ if he had not been screwed over by those atlantic city judges in that track meet of a fight with Cory Sphinx. I'm sorry but sphinx did not win that fight. He did NOT box. That was not boxing. Pernell whitaker was a boxer, RJJ was the best boxer, Meldrick Taylor was a boxer, kassim Ouma is a boxer, Winky is a boxer, Sphinx is a frikin runner! And I think Vernon did a hell of a lot better job of Boxing Mayorga the second fight than sphinx did. and he LOST that fight. Mayorga could have made for some legendary fights at welterweight against Margirito and Mosely, and now Judah. He still can be Undisputed Champ again, he just needs to get back down to Welterweight where he belongs. Will he? I sure hope so.
Incredibly, I happen to agree with you on this topic. How can Mayorga be called a flash in the pan? He beat Vernon Forrest not once, but twice, and is a tough and gallant warrior. People are too quick to dis fighters based on their last showing. If Mayorga wants to come back, I for one will welcome him. He's wonderfully exciting to watch.
