    I've heard that Ricardo Williams is out of prison already and looking to make a comeback.

      As it says on Williams' official website:

      "What makes a champion is someone who is down and comes back."

        im going to have to put on vote out for Rocky Juarez. He keeps getting a shot at greatness but somehow finds a way to **** it all away.

              I am going to throw a name out there that although he has been victimized by judges in a few fights, would take a fight at a moments notice, to fight anywhere, against anyone ----

              For my money, I would have to say the one fighter who had all the skills, a fighter who had major belt holders duck him, rather than take a chance against him, a fighter, who just never put it all together on the right night was ----

              Emanual Burton or Emanual Augustus if you prefer....

                Ideally, you should work your way to a title shot in order for champs to "duck" you.

                Augustus never was in a position where he was a top contender.
