Sometimes young fighters are "exposed", sometimes they are rushed and put in over their heads, some don't take their talent seriously and waste it, and others get involved in a lot of brutal battles at a young age and lose a lot along their way. Whatever their reason, here are some that come to mind:
Kelly Pavlik
Kid Diamond
Francisco "Panchito" Bojado
David Reid
Jaidon Codrington
Michael Grant
Jeff Lacy

I have my doubts but I hope we see him come back stronger. He looked great in the De Marco fight but it's going to take some strong character to come back from brutal loss.

Is it too soon to add Danny Jacobs to the list?

Originally posted by Something Jr View PostI call it brutal because of the oppurtunity presented to him and his reaction to the loss immediately post fight. He was crushed.
