Re: Who is the unluckiest Brit to not win a world title.
I am only joking do not encourage him to make a comeback sometimes fighters egos get the best of them.
I am the person who wrote Herol Graham was number one contender to fight Hagler, who decides not to fight him and take on some other fighter called Sugar Ray who out boxed him and took all the credit that Graham should have had. He missed out on big fights with Eubank, Benn and Watson because they all knew he would embarrass them. He looses a world title fight to McCallum by a point deduction by an idiot ref which would have made it a draw. He out boxes Julian Jackson for 3 1/2 rounds and gets hit by that punch. He outboxes and knocks down Sambu Kalambay in his home town and does not get the decision.
He makes a comeback at the age of 154 and beats an undefeated prospect from Canada and beats Paziensa and then looses to Brewer after knocking him down because his poor old legs could not carry him. If anyone is entitled to beating up a schoolboy it is him. With the luck he has had he should have put the boot in as well! on another subject of him being a bully. He was a top fighter.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
