View Full Version : The Most Wasted Talent in HW Boxing in 90-00s Nautilus 11-19-2004, 12:46 AM Any suggestions? The Tout 11-19-2004, 01:47 AM There was a prospect named Jo El Scott or something like that, that ended up in prison. Of course Ike Ibeabuchi ended up in jail after knocking out Byrd.

Did CITA sue Ibeabuchi for KOing Byrd and get him imprisoned? ;) marvdave 11-19-2004, 02:46 AM Riddick Bowe for sure..all the talent in the world, lacking character and heart FistoftheDallasStar 11-19-2004, 02:47 AM Hands down it would have to be Mike Tyson. He spent the prime of his fighting career in jail. KJ 11-19-2004, 06:14 AM Hands down it would have to be Mike Tyson. He spent the prime of his fighting career in jail. Yes must be Tyson. But his skills were declining rapidly, due to lack of training even before he went to jail. deuce_drop 11-19-2004, 07:13 AM Ike Ibeabuchi , without question.. PacKillsMorales 11-19-2004, 07:28 AM tyson had everything and ended up with less than nothing lsk 11-19-2004, 07:37 AM Ike ibeabuchi,mike tyson,holyfield and Bowe PacKillsMorales 11-19-2004, 07:42 AM Ike ibeabuchi,mike tyson,holyfield and Bowe wasnt holyfield a cruiserweight whos a three time world HEAVYWEIGHT champion??? KJ 11-19-2004, 07:52 AM Ike ibeabuchi,mike tyson,holyfield and Bowe Holyfield?!?! :confused: PacKillsMorales 11-19-2004, 07:54 AM Holyfield?!?! :confused: isk needs to get his arse back on here and explain :( Cletus Funk 11-19-2004, 08:04 AM Holyfield?!?! :confused: I was thinking the same thing. tony 11-19-2004, 08:11 AM You couldn't really call Tyson a wasted talent of the 90's. He burned brightly in the 80's and made more money than anybody else in the history of the sport. The fact that he couldn't hold onto that money is neither here nor there. Bowe had his time in the limelight too, he's got a 2-1 over Holyfield. I'd have to say Ike Ibeabuchi. The1God 11-19-2004, 09:06 AM Tye Fields, Eric Esch, George Foreman.

Tyson burned brightly.... and shortly. He could have ruled the division for a long time. But he stopped training and lost, than went to jail. The hype stayed...and the accomplishments stayed.. behind. For all the talent and possibilities he had, to my opinion he could have been the greatest, but wasted it. Eman 11-19-2004, 02:15 PM Mike Tyson, Bowe and Ike hands down. But out of those three i would have to say bowe at last Ike and mike went to jail during there prime, Bowe was at his prime, fighting, and champion but he was just lazy. Sir_Jose 11-19-2004, 04:07 PM Bowe. all the talent in the world, but he just couldn't push away from table. KJ 11-20-2004, 03:49 AM isk needs to get his arse back on here and explain :( Please ISK explain and enlighten us with your wisdom! foremanfan 11-20-2004, 07:07 AM Tye Fields, Eric Esch, George Foreman. Foreman used his talents well in the 90s regaining the legit title and earning millions. PacKillsMorales 11-20-2004, 07:59 AM Foreman used his talents well in the 90s regaining the legit title and earning millions. how comes foreman never fought ali again. :D seems ali danced in more ways than one :mad: |
