    Also that guy who fought trinidad. David Reid? Jumped in to quick and got battered

    Zab judah, awesome skills but never trained or had the hunger for it.

    I think francisco Bojado should be mentioned. Awesome amater career. could not focus at the level needed to be pro.

    Oh yeah. odlanier solis. he he would have fought at around 225-230 he would have beaten vitali IMO
    Huh? I had to lol

      Tony Ayala Jr. Was a real beast in the ring in the early 80's. But was a sorry ass criminal outside of it. When he was finally released from prison he tried to make a comeback but it was already too late.

          Guillermo Rigondeaux, he has all the talent in the world but he is moving along at a snail's pace when he should have already unified titles.

            Roy Jones a waste of talent? Are you kidding me? Have you seen him actually fight? Probably top 10 ever. What other boxer has gone 9-10 years and 50 fights without even LOSING A ROUND!

                Not counting premature deaths such as Stanley Ketchel getting shot at age 24, Salvador Sanchez, etc, my #1 vote goes to Tony Ayala. Ike Ibeabuchi is up there also.
