Name some to show JUYJUY that amateurs and professionals are a whole different game..

this dude named Arsalan...not much of an amateur career but he will be an AMAZING pro. Just watch, in 5-7 years he will be on top.

i think joe frazier was a bad amateur. partly because joe was a slow starter, so if the amateurs are three rounds, then joe wouldn't have enough time to get going, but in the pros he would.

likewise buster mathis was a very good amateur, but a bum as a pro.

duh rocky marciano

I know that Hearns wasn't much of a puncher in the ams.

Well, my uncle was like 350-9 in the amateurs, one of the highest rated ever in U.S. history back in the 70's, but as a pro he was old and had no legs. I think he went 0-4 or 1-4 as a pro.

buster mathis .sr beat joe a few times as amateurs lost to him and ali as a pro....henry tillman beat tyson 2 times or more as amateurs and lost to him by ko 1 in the pros

david tua was a ****y ameatur because hes not the "win on points" type of guy

You must be joking man, he only had 14 fights when he took on Trinidad :eek:

Joe Fraiser won a gold medal in the Olympics he was a pretty friggin good amatuer.

sorry but Joe was an ALT also at the OLYMpics ...buster did beat him for the spot but got hurt joe was the runner up.....

Even if he was an Alterante at the Olympics he was still a friggin Gold Medalist he was a very good amateur fighter.
