    Robin Reid

    How was he shot??

    At aged 28 alot of people thought he beat Calzaghe, went on to beat Brian Mcgee as a big underdog is his own backyard at 33, and was robbed of a victory against Sven Ottke at aged 32.

    Far from shot mate, he was basically just not that good a decent fighter who was just as good at 33 as he was in his mid to late twenties.

    Tyson Fury
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    Haha.....Some guys just dont have very far to fall when it comes to them being 'on top'.When you think about it,some top champions just devolve into a journeyman status,still durable and pulling off the occasional suprise but brought in to make another fighter look the part...Livingston Bramble comes to mind.Likewise some hyped guys just get exposed on a different level,can never take the next step.....really not to many shot and done with (legs on roller skates and being wobbled and flattened) over night?

    Bramble looked sharp against Mancini. good in-fighter and counterpuncher.

    Could have been his encounter with Bouie Fisher that did him in.

    Jermaine Taylor may soon be on this list if he can't regroup against Abraham. He lost the last two fights of his twenties, and is 1-1-0 since turning 30. Ironically, the win is against another man destined for this category, Jeff Lacy!

    Of the two, you would have to bet on Taylor righting the ship, but he has a daunting task ahead with Abraham.
