      WUT!
      Rid**** Bowe had a hall of fame career.
      He is probably a top 30 HW of all time.

        Panchito Bojado was regarded as the best prospect over miguel cotto in the early 2ks. This dude had so much natural talent i cant believe he threw it away. Smh

        Zab judah should have accomplished alot more.

        There are just too many

            Ever? Probably Joan Guzman.

            Current its got to be Jose A Gonzalez (Puerto Rican that schooled Ricky Burns and quit then quit again not so long back) - All the tools but mentally weak.
            Another though recently retired was Tor Hamer - Very well schooled just no heart. I know people joke about Victor Ortiz quitting but at least he gives it a go first. Sad really.

                Gerry Cooney. 2 fights in 3 years. Fought 3 rounds. Then fights Holmes. He had a good jab, a great left hook and was huge. If he was handled right and had a trainer like Eddie Futch great things would have happened.

                    Rigo is the poster boy for wasted potential.
                    Devon Alexander showed a ton of potential but had some set backs and his achievements don't reflect his talents.
