Lets get old school here or not. Mine are Jerry Quarry and Jesus Pimental. New school are Harold Brazier, Lamar Parks(hon men), Angel Manfredy. With so many titles nowadays if your great you'll usually win one. Any thoughts.
Juyjuy .. oh i mean Chris eubank :). he never won a proper world title.. I mean winning a fringe WBO title DOES NOT count.. specially when u consider that he won WBO title in 1990 when WBO only started in like 88. 2 years is not enuff to make any title LEGIT imo. and If u ask some school guyz , i think they still dont consider wbo a proper title.
So imo the best boxer who never won a world title has to be Chris eubanks(Im srry juyjuy ;) ..

I also think Jeremy Williams could have dominated the Crusier weights earlier in his career. Very talented with no chin. Would have loved to see Zach Padilla take on Chavez around 94. It would have been a shootout.
I forgot all about Burley and Langford of course. For some reason I thought Bomber Graham picked one up. OBA Carr is truly the best recent fighter to not win one. He came along at the wrong time, I mean Quartey, Trinidad and De La Hoya. I bet he wishes he was born about ten years later.
Ones that come to mind....
Sam Langford
George Godfrey
Harry Wills
Jerry Quarry....agreed
Zack Padilla...jr welter
Bert Cooper....if he could have remained focused and off the "stuff", he had the talent, IMO....Cruiserweight more than Heavy.
Charley Burley...duh.
Bennie Briscoe
....that's all I can think of for now.
