favorit boxer NEVER to win title

[Britkid]

Herol 'Bomber' Graham was a mighty fine fighter who was never quite good enough to beat Hagler, and by 1987, Bomber was slightly past his prime, even though he would give The Bodysnatcher Mike McCallum hell, and but for a point deduction would of drawn with the Awesome Jamaican.

But Herol was no so much fun to watch, so as far as favorites go, I would say Shea Neary. He was a lot of fun in the early 90s, and won a piece god awful alphabet crap, but when he finally fought at World Class (against Micky Ward); he was found just a little wanting.

umm Jerry Quarry & Edison Miranda are two that come to minde

[DaxxKahn]

Joe Hipp

[CutMeMick]

Oba Carr was always a favorite to watch. The elite were just to much for him.

That was in no small part down to me, I picked him to be the fighter of the 90s; with Manny behind him, he could not fail!

Well he was the Welterweight of the 90's. Right behind Ike Quartey, Felix Trinidad, Oscar De La Hoya, Pernell Whitaker and maybe Jose Luis Lopez.

Right now...Andy Lee, he's in a deep division and he's hit sort of a plateau as far as showing power.


In history...hhhmmm, that's tough one..... Donovan 'Razor' Rudduck comes to mind, exciting fighter, bit of a weight problem later on in his career but he was pretty dangerous...had a chance to beat Tyson in the rematch.

How could I forget George Chuvalo. Great guy with a tragic story.

I think Andy Lee will become excellent, it's just that after his surprise defeat, stewart decided to go a bit slower on the kid and to stop putting pressure by saying he was the next big thing. Let's see but I feel that one good.

Antwun Echols.

If he would have fought William Joppy or Keith Holmes for their MW belts then he would have been a world champion.

Instead he took on the best, Bernard Hopkins, twice, and ended becoming a name opponent and trial horse for young fighters.

Old school! Would have to go to the great Sam Langford
New school! Buck Smith, Emmanuel Augustus, Micky Ward and Gerry Cooney

I remember seeing pieces on him about how he and a couple of his 'opponents' would travel from arena to arena and have like 2,3,4 fights in a week.Honestley he has more padding than a highschool prom and TONS of No descisions,unsanctioned fights.Used to sleep in his car...have gloves,will travel life career.Really a nice guy.Had a frigging war with Kevin Pompey and went into a couple of guys backyards and just trounced them On ESPN.Traveling gypsy of the journeymen.
