    Jhonny Gonzalez, he's a multi weight titlist but I feel he has/had the potential for much more.

      KP has to be one of the biggest overachievers in boxing when you consider what abilities he had and the luck of the draw him being the 1st legit MW to challenge JT who had created the illusion of being elite by scraping by an old Hopkins.

        Good answer. If that dude had durability, he would give the business to anyone.

        DeMarcus CHOP CHOP Corley is so much better than what he achieved.

          At least when Erdei won the WBC title at CW he did it against a quality opponent and at significant weight disadvantage.

          Narvaez.

            Joan fricken Guzman. What a waste... On his best day, he was unstoppable. I really think he would have outboxed Pacquiao at 130. Guzman-Soto looked like Mayweather-Marquez.

              Fragoment was like a thousand years old, and got blown up by Wlodarczyk in his next fight.

              But I get it... still more legit than the dude Narvaez beat to get the WBO 115 title.

                His inability to take a punch has hurt him so bad. He beat Montiel years ago. You know he could have easily won his fights with Nishioka, Penalosa, and Vazquez.

                    True.

                    His rise to the title was impressive.

                    His title reign was a uttery disappointment.

                    Paul Williams is in limbo.

                    He should've fought Kelly and he should fight Sergio again.

                      Chris John, for sure. He's an excellent boxer.
