The Greatest Journeymen?

[cotto16]

Journeymen who turned there careers round and went on to win world titles cannot be included.
For me its Marion Wilson the guy was never knocked out or stopped and was put against fighters like Mccall, samuel peter, tony thompson, Hasim Rahman, chazz weatherspoon, oleg maskev, larry Donald, david izon, Ezra Sellers, Derick Jefferson, Greg Page, cory sanders, Ike Ibeabuchi, Orlin Norris, Obed Sullivan, Shannon Briggs, andrew Golota, Kirk Johnson, Ray Mercer, Vaughn Bean, Jeremy Williams, Terrel Briggs, Francois Botha.

Also worth pointing out the fight with mercer was a draw, and in a recent interveiw with boxing digest he was ripped of in the briggs, johnson, mccall, and rahman fights, and tuck most of them fights on short notice.

Herol Graham. Setanta sports told me.

Herol Graham was no journeyman, he was the greatest british boxer not to win a world title

[Dirt E Gomez]

Augustus, Cooper, Ward, and Oba Carr would all be near the top of the list.

I'm thinking that might qualify him for "greatest journeyman" then?

[Fox McCloud]

Even though he won the WBO title... DEMARCUS CHOP CHOP CORLEY was pretty good at really testing the really good fighters, but never winning.

depends what you define a journeyman as.

the best fighter with a journeyman record Ive ever seen is probebly Freddie Pendleton. He ended up winning a title eventually, but he had so many just weird losses to mediocre guys...
but at the same time he was a very naturally talented fighter with lots of very good performances. one of the strangest fighters of all time, imo.
