    Boxer's who were thrown in at the deep end

    Mudine vs Sven Ottke
    Ali vs Liston
    Pete Rademacher vs Floy Patterson
    Dwight Muhammad Qawi vs Matthew Saad Muhammad
    David Reid vs Felix Trinidad
    Choi Tseveenpurev vs Veeraphol Sahaprom
    Leon Spinks vs Muhammed Ali 1
    Jimmy Young vs Earnie shavers 1
    Evander Holeyfield vs Qwai 1
    Pernell Whitaker vs Jose Luis Ramirez 1

    For some of these fighters the gamble of geting thrown in at the deep end paid off! for others it was a very long night. Any others?

            I didn't. Had they brought Vargas along properly he would have been a LEGEND. He was never the same after that ass grinding tito put on him. his managers and promoter ruined his career and cost him MILLIONS.....

                  davey was moore the favourite going into the duran fight, so he was not techtechnicaly geting thrown in at the deep end, not many people were giveing duran a chance.
