    Anyone remember Baby Joe Mesi?

    Sucks what happened to him. While he's got some decent wins on his record, we never really saw what could of happened to him should he have fought some SERIOUS heavy competition. The fact that Monte Barret had him all over the place I think shows enough of what kind of level he truely was at. Still, he basically retired undefeated and now is into politics.

      Who can forget the Great White hype. Sucks what happened to him, but they were pushing the guy down our throats like he was the next Jack Dempsey/Rocky Marciano.

          Mesi wasn't bad.....would have been interested to have seen him in there with Brewster Ibragimov or Klitschko back when he was fighting.

            he was in politics for a while he won as a ********, but doesn't hold any seat currently. I have no clue what he has been up to. I think he makes money doing local commercials around Buffalo new york.

              Jirov came up from cruiser and had him falling all over himself. I don't know if that was before the brain injury or not but he was easy to hit regardless.

                Blood in the brain caused by a punch from Jirov to the back of the head late in the fight that he was otherwise winning. He had Dr.'s who cleared him to fight after some time and claimed there was no residual damage but the the boxing commission refused him a license. He fought to have it reinstated for some time but without success.
