Favorite Contender to Never win a world title...

[bigragu]

Yeah - Quarry is a good example.

So are Harry Wills, Joe Jeanette, Robbie Sims, Herol Graham, Ken Norton, Roland LaStarza, Billy Conn.

Just around at the wrong time!!

Shavers and Cooney for me....

Oscar Bonovena was pretty exciting, put Joe Frazier down and like Quarry fought all of the best.

Did Jimmy Ellis ever become champ?

I know he eventually won a title but I consider Frank Bruno to be the best man never to win a world title.

He was such a lovable loser in that peculiarly British way, I feel like Jimmy White in snooker Bruno was destined to be British boxing's nearly man.

Then he went and beat McCall and shot his legacy to pieces :P

Yeah what an epic passing of the torch in that fight huh... Bruno hanging on for dear life through the championship rounds, practically crying as his hand was raised.

Ken and Billy both held world titles

I'll hold my hands up and admit to the error about Norton (just forgot ), but I meant Conn at heavyweight. If Louis hadn't been around, he would have been the champ for sure.

Yeah he would have....He shook the hell out of a prime Joe Louis....I may be mistaken but didn't he drop Joe in one of those fights
?...Can't remember if they fought once or twice?

Conn stunk it up in the second fight, but he owned Joe in the first until he decided that he could knock him out. I can't remember if he put Joe down, but Billy totally had him rocked the round before Joe came back and got him. That was the problem. He wanted to finish the job and gave Louis the opening.

Ron Lyle, cause he was also a pimp.....

[Violent Demise]

Oba Carr. Trinidad took his 0. Quartey punished him for 12 rounds. And De La Hoya ended him as a contender.
