I've heard a lot of things about him and watched his fights but of course he was before my time. He bey Roy Jones Jr in the amateurs, had crazy speed and power. Julian Jackson fght was great, excluding all the stuff outside of boxing, how good was he and how would he have done today. GGG vs G-man, imagine what a barnburner that would be.

Great amateur career, looked sensational, had extremely weak resume. Only 3 significant wins against Jackson (2x), and an old Mugabi. So it's hard to say how good he really was. His attitude was self-destructive, and after he left Steward his training habits became increasingly poor and he relied more and more on his power. Don King was also to blame with the match making and activity. King cashed him out vs Benn, first fight from MW vs established fighter in the UK.

What happened to him after the Benn fight was right and just. I'm glad he's now a boggle eyed raspberry.

Let me remind everyone, I specifically said said exclude everything outside the ring. This is purely boxing talk, couldn't care less what he did outside tenrng in this partiular discussion.

Basically he's what Chavez Jr. fails to even execute correctly. He drained himself down more than a play-pool in the Sahara.
Very good potential, MASSIVE power, crazy good chin, but lacked real discipline and made ****** choices in terms of training. The idiot basically trained himself and did his own hand wrapping for the Benn fight since his "trainer" was completely ******ed.
