In the mid-1990’s, boxing pundits and fans alike lauded the class of Welterweights inhabiting the division at the time as being part of a return to the “Golden Age”. The ”Golden Age” most were referring to was the Middleweight class of the Mid-1980’s. Back then, the Middleweight division was loaded with talented fighters like Marvin Hagler, Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns and Roberto Duran. Fast-forward ten years and the Welterweight division was home to fighters like Felix Trinidad, Oscar de la Hoya, Ike Quartey and Pernell Whitaker.
But there were other less popular and probably less talented fighters that dwelt just below the top tier of the 90’s “Golden Age”. Fighters that, given a lucky break or a little more focus may have ended up in the same class as De la Hoya and Trinidad. Namely fighters like Oba Carr, Ramon “Yory Boy” Campas and Jose Luis Lopez. Carr earned several title shots and each time fell just short. Campas was a devastating puncher but proved too slow to compete against De la Hoya and simply came along at the wrong time to beat a prime Felix Trinidad. [details]Comment
