      I wouldn't say I considered them to be great but at least very good. Ricardo Williams Jr and Panchito Bojado... I would of bet anybody at the time that both fighters would be better than Cotto at 140... Boy was I wrong...

          victor ortiz, even though its kinda early to throw in the towel for him.

          juan diaz

          i though jcc jr. was going to be good, but all he fights are bums, so i stop backing him

            Juan Diaz had a hell of a run though... I would not consider that a flop... I guess it depends on how good you thought he was going to be. But, he unified the division, damn near had all the major belts, and damn near cleaned out the division...

              Michael Bennett and David Reid come to mind.

              Who would've thought Bennett had a chin of glass against journeymen too.

                    augie sanchez the kid had vicious power but when he got to the pros naseem proved he did not have any type of chin,edner cherrys the most recent i thought he would be a belt holder by this point.
