    I think Miranda did what he could.Codrington just had a chin that made Khan look like Chavez.Peterson yea not sure he had the toughness he got broke by Rios and really just retired.I know he has had a fight here and there but ALL clubfighters and most not even good ones.

      Yeah he did. Even in that loss you could see how ridiculously talented he was. A shame. Most of that Olympic class didn’t turn out too well.

        Not sure I would say that she just had no place to go.I mean Ali would not fight her and NO MONEY anywhere else for womens boxing esp then.Would love to see how the "golden girl"would do with her in prime.

            Yep. Hyped up class. Forget who else was in it. Vinson, I think was one name.

              Biggest duds of all time:

              Buster Douglas
              Andrew Golota


              Both had so much potential but just fizzled out.

                  Lacy wasn’t a dud but he sure was overrated.

                    Good ones esp Douglas if he had his fathers heart and desire he really could have been something.Golata also but what a headcase he needed a psyc more then a trainer.

                      Yea JUST a left hook remember making a nice score on his fight with J Calzage.I still cant believe how so many did not see that coming.People always go overboard on punchers.They love their monsters but the thing about monsters is they go away when you turn the light on.And tech good boxing IS THE LIGHT.
