Amateur boxing is amateur boxing. It has its place. That place has no bearing on fights without headgear. Ask Tillman, ask Biggs, ask Pinto...hell you can ask a lot of amateur winners who lost to those same fighters in the pros.
The most prominent example of an amateur winner becoming a professional loser was the combination of Joe Frazier and Buster Mathis. Mathis was the fastest fighter on his feet, for his size that I'd ever seen.
this was also before he hooked up with conte....

Yea but Vic was a 5 foot 2 112 pound little guy
Viloria's a hell of a fighter. He should be p4p ranked.
Should be. But guys like Viloria and Roman Gonzalez won't get recognised no matter what they do.
Yea but that's before Conte gave him undetectable steroids

why is viloria not on the p4p list. he's beaten solis, segura, and marquez in the last couple years. was it because he lost a fight omg bum alert! guerrero is on the list? why? because he's moved up so many weight classes while beating fringe contenders!
agreed...it's criminal not having viloria in the p4p list at this point...viloria definitely deserves to be there more than guerrero and especially more than broner.
Give me the book on how to score amateur fight!! That was an easy win for Donaire! Rd 1 was draw, Rd 2 Donaire Dominates. Rd 3 close to Donaire, Rd 4 edge to Donaire!
