Biggest "could've beens" in this era?

[Thickback]

Zab Judah, Ike ibeobouchi come to mind.

Ike was the first person I thought of. Michael Grant. David Reid.

Joan Guzman-...
Ricardo Williams Jr.-2000 Silver Medalist
Francisco "Panchito" Bojado- Remember him having speed and power.

[Showtime..]

Judah is the most talented & potential filled fighter of the last 10 years+. He was just f'd up in the head. He could have gone the way of Mayweather and even better if he applied himself. But alas..

Really? I mean, Lopez is a solid fighter. I don't think he ever displayed any potential that would make someone think he could be anything more than a C+/B- fighter

knocks out mike dallas who goes on to also get knocked out by lucas mathy and he gets treated as a super human.. beats the prospect jessie vargas at the time mayweather was hailing him as the next best thing but gets robbed.. breaks victor ortiz's jaw and gets a come from behind victory ... get thrown up 2 weight divisions and puts combos on canelo before being stopped by the guy out weighing him 30+ pounds ... once again gets thrown at a hard puncher in Maidana mayweathers next opponent and has him stunned with a body shot before he gets stopped once again by a much bigger man.... i believe he could have put in some work if his career was managed better he has length and strength

Yeah, Judah could've been something special

[Fr3$h]

I think Ike was very overrated and would have just been another also-ran with a scary physique

Kelly Pavlik without booze and Paul Williams without his accident jump out at me

[damit305]

panchito Bojado, Chavez Jr, and Canelo.

Periban is disappointing as well, getting out slugged by Bika, tsk tsk.

thanks for reminding me! you woke me up with ricardo williams and bojado.

[Box-Office]

Jorge Linares he never truly developed into what everyone hoped he'd be. The fact that he cut so easily didn't help as we saw against DeMarco.

This right here.

Id like to add Judah in there as well because unlike Linares, Judah was highly touted to be "that guy" in boxing and really disappointed.

p.s nice thread topic.

[IST-ra-GLEr2]

Bojado, tokunbo olanjide, Vargas, Joan Guzman,
