augie sanchez the kid had vicious power but when he got to the pros naseem proved he did not have any type of chin,edner cherrys the most recent i thought he would be a belt holder by this point.

I for one had bought into the Jeff Lacy hype, after the first round against Calzaghe I knew it was over. Acalino Freitas too, he was mopping the floor with everyone he faced, then he tried to become a more technical fighter and went down the drain. No Mas against Chico.

Zab Judah.

I expected more from him.

Errol Christie, then someone hit him

Zab Judah.

I expected more from him.

I always thought Judahs natural athletic talent was very close to Mayweathers, he just havent the discipline or focus that Mayweather has.

Would kind of put Toney in this category, certainly wouldn't say he flopped but he didn't fulfil his potential in my view and he should be a nailed on atg with his ability wheras he has managed to leave doubt in many peoples minds.

Toneys greatest failing was his mamas baking, I heard him say that in an interview one time his mother owned a bakery and he couldnt control himself. I think we may be seeing another heavyweight flop in front of our very eyes for the same reason. I believe the quote was "Im ok until about three in the morning, but then, I get ****in hungry man" Chris Arreola.

First off this thread is about fighters who flopped! fighters like james toney, zab judah and jeff lacy did not flop all three become world champions! you wanna talk about a figher who flopped how about cuban heavyweight Jorge Luis Gonzalez. This thread is not about fighters who could of been great or didnt furfil there careers! it about fighters who just flopped full stop! like that cuban heavyweight and ricardo williams
