Well that's what you get for priming Eubank too much and try to manipulate the facts. Like I said Benn is exciting too watch and Eubank is uninspiring.
BOXING's COULD HAVE BEEN GREATS!

Larry Merchant made that quote by the way "He could of been fighter of the decade" referring to Eubank.
Manny Steward said "He can be as good as he wants to be.." and basically was saying what a waste of potential (even though Eubank did achieve a lot)..

Greg Page
Michael Dokes
Tim Witherspoon
Eddie Mustapha Muhammad
Tony Ayala maybe
Donald Curry - for all those pondering the expert theory was that he stayed at welter too long. His last couple of fights he had had trouble making the weight apparently and this as well as Honeyghan being vastly underrated supposedly contributed to his loss, from which he never recovered really. They say he should have hit Junior Middle a couple of fights earlier than this fight.
Aaron Pryor - we never got to see how good he really was.
Jef Chandler - JUST missed.
Hector Camacho - changed dramatically after Rosario frightened him.
Sal Sanchez - untimely death.Comment

i can think of two huge wastes of talent ....
1 - ricardo williams - this mf'in dude .....
2 - man, i'm having a hard time remembering his name but i was SUCH a believer in this mexican dude ... dammit ... dude who was trained by floyd mayweather sr for a bit then by mcgirt, lost to rubio and jesse james leija.
if these two morons had someone to smack their ***** asses up and get 'um in line then the 140 division would be STACKEDDDDDD.
i'm not finishing this post until i remember his name .... AHHH! FRANCISCO PANCHITO BOJADO - fast ass hands, concussive power, great lateral movement - dude had infinite potential - 2 years ago i was telling people how this'll be the epitome of taino/azteca war w/ he and cotto going at it.
anyone remember this dude?Comment

What Can I say these fighters have their chance but Circumastances occured that they might or might not have control over it cost their chances to obtain Superstar Status or a Chance to be recognize as one of the Greats.
You Might Have your own list Please tell Me yours.
Who knows, he may have been beaten a lot earlier had he fought the best in each division...... But if he had taken the chance, and it paid off... He might be known as one of the all time greats, instead of his wasted career.
