I dont think losses where the ¨good fighter¨ was absolutely past prime should count
when you are shot to ****, you cant be considered a ¨good fighter¨ anymore
He was trying to pull some Sweet Pea defensive moves on the overmatched Rahman, moves that had never been part of his skillset (and almost impossible for a man his size), that's underestimating your opponent and showboatingLast edited by lopetego; 01-03-2016, 02:18 PM.Comment

Spinks wasn't a bum though. He was an Olympic gold medalist. Plus Ali was past prime. So was Jones.
Boone is a career journeyman for sure, but I wouldn't call him a bum either. He's proved to be a tough test for many fighters, including Kovalev and Andre Ward.Comment

I agree that bum is harsh for these guys. A bum to me has a really bad losing record but for this practice its fair to call someone who is 23-22-4 a bum otherwise no one has lost to a true bum.Comment

I think it was more down to lewis not being in shape, and not being physically ready to react to his opponent. It was a nice shot and was set up well. Full credit to rahman.I dont think losses where the ¨good fighter¨ was absolutely past prime should count
