Best Fighter Never To Win The World Title?

[Thread Stealer]

Langford and Burley.

[MikeBrew328]

Howard Davis Jr. Olympic gold.

[Leo Pradun]

I gota go with with Ray Mercer he was robbed against Lewis

[Flab]

Victor Polo

5 world title chances 3 robberies, the draw with Scott Harrison was a total disgrace to English boxing.

Just look at his face.

Sam Langford and Charles Burley.
Herol Graham was not better than Benn or Eubank, he kept his hands far two low and stuck his chin out there.
He didn't deserve a title show because he lost to Jackson and Jackson was the more deserving fighter.

[number6]

What I have read from Boxing history the answer is, Charley Burley.

Did Burley never win it at Middleweight either,if not he gets my vote for sure.

For me its Herol 'the bomber' Graham. he should have gotten the decision against mccallum. he was better than benn n eubank imo who were titlist at the time

The bomber was top quality but had a fragile chin,you could'nt compare him to either Chris or Nigel because of the difference in their styles,he had great hand speed and upper body movement but he was down a level to them lads when it came to really fighting............look at there records as a comparison to his...he should have been a champion tho..

no doubt it has to be David Tua.

That fight was for the vacant title not a title shot if im correct.

Im not too sure Eubank would have beat Graham either, i just fail to see how Chris would do enough to pick up the rounds in this one.

He would have a good chance to ko him if he found the big right hand though.

Problem is that many fighters survived the full 12 with Eubank that had an ounce of the talent that Herol had.

not to metion the fact that Vincenzo Nardiello & Suagr Boy Malinga were World Champions around the same sort of era

Eubank wanted no part of Herol Graham or Mike McCallum
