Also Buster Mathis. He was a decent fighter but had a weight problem. He was 243 lbs. when he lost to Joe Frazier, 256 lbs. when he lost to Ali, and 263 lbs. when he lost to Ron Lyle.
He was only 232 lbs. when he beat George Chuvalo. Some say he could've had an exceptional career if he'd trained harder and hadn't ballooned up between fights.
