thats a hard question i know some fighters who went on to be good but not great fighters. David Lopez, kirkno garcia, carlos baldamoir, micky walker got stopped in his first fight he went on to be great
In his first 8 fights Henry Armstrong had won 5, been defeated 3 times and knocked out once. But would go on to hold Titles in 3 different weight division at the same time and be remembered at one of the best of all time.
At one stage in his career Manuel Ortiz was 23-10-1. But would go on to become Bantamweight Champion and make 15 defences of the Title.
In his first 20 fights Benny Leonard had been stopped and knocked out 3 times, but would go on to rule the Lightweight division and become one of the best Lightweights of all time.
In his first 12 fights Pipeno Cuevas was defeated 5 times and knocked out on his debut. But would go on to become of the best Welterweights in the world.
In his first 3 fights Dwight Muhhamad Qawi was 1-1-1, but would go no to become the WBC LHW Champion of the world and a Hall Of Famer.
Plenty More but a good few.
