    .Oleg Maskaev
    .Frank Bruno
    .Carlos Maussa
    Probs forgot a few!
    But at the end of the day all these figters worked hard and i have nothing but respect for all them but just a intresting topic!
    Bruno isn't that bad. I would pick him to beat every heavy out there todays apart from Wlad. He would eat Samuel Peter for breakfast.

            Just because he was the favorite doesn't mean he wasn't washed up. He also beat a washed up Castillo that was fighting for peanuts. If I'm not mistaken, Castillo was keeping less than 20 grand for his fight with Ricky, due to legal problems. Why would he want to get back up from that body shot? I'm sure he could but he was like "**** this, let me just stay down". Then people make it seem like Hatton beat the Castillo that almost beat Mayweather.

              I hate Ruiz, but I wouldn't call him worst. He fought better competition than most champs today and I respect what he accomplished with limited skills.

              Ottke would be my pound-for-pound worst. He probably thinks he'll die in his first footstep outside Germany. He'd probably die stepping off an airplane.

                I always thought Ruiz was a decent boxer/puncher myself, before he was wiped out by Tua. That ruined him. He quit boxing, and just started bum-rushing, throwing a punch or two and grabbing on.

                  Eric Aiken anybody?

                  Won the IBF Featherweight title by DQ, and went 0-3-1 since the "win".
