Outside of Floyd, I'd add Hopkins at 160, Tank, Ottke, Stevenson.

As to Rahman Jr, Jake tried to keep him in the fight when he wasn't going to make weight, making concessions, but seems like Jr didn't even try, but now he's got a gig and payday with the slayer of Vander, Viktor Belfort. Will Jr make the scratch line?
Jake made the Fury and Rahman family look like shyte, and bro Logan made l'l floyd and much of the boxing establishment look like idiots.
These are Utube celebs, proof boxing in America in the lowest dumps in history.

See the problem Rahman faced? Now there was money on the table... But would you, or I for that matter, really want to walk into a situation where we were drained and unable? So Rahman came up with a brilliant idea (sarcasm). He realized that if the fight was close and Paul was under the gun Paul would fight him at a reasonable weight... OR NOT, because like Rahman, Paul brother #2 did not want to lose.
I like the Paul brothers but I blame this on brother #2! He thought he was the only one with an ego, who does not like to lose... Turns out Rahman felt the same way. He should have anticipated this development... The Art of War.

With Jones, I felt that the fighters he was accused of ducking were all in Europe. He was a champion, and I didn't see why a champion had to chase a challenger fighting in their backyard. I think he was also reluctant to fight on their turf since his robbery in South Korea during Olympics. Outside of that I don't know who else he avoided in the CONUS. He was on a collision course with McCellan until his career ended with a brain injury in the Benn fight. I know Hopkins avoided him at 168 and priced himself out of the original rematch negotiations. He finally agreed to fight him after he was spent, and still tried to get him DQ'd with that pathetic acting job like he was shot in the head.The Old LefHook likes this.

Oh, but Roy smarter than you knowing Darius had KOed or otherwise beat several fighters with better results before Roy got to them, a clear and present duck of Darius on the historic eve of him tying Rocky record then.

Originally posted by Dr. Z View PostWe got two all timers today in Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder. Think about it, between the two the fights they fight the old or not very good. Not one instance of a top 10 ring magazine contender in their prime. Well maybe one under 34. That's it for their career. They have picked so many cherries their hands are red. And the belt miking between the two! I don't know what to call it.
