greatest amatuer ever...

[Dr Gonzo]

yeah Felix Savon has a great record - i saw him win gold in sydney and it was a truly great moment

[Spartan_Boxer]

Mario Kindelan was very good.

[PATSYS]

Audley has to be up there somewhere.

Matter of fact he is still looks like an amateur today, and he is fighting pros!

He has ups and downs, but who hasn't?

A-force all the way!

He has to be up there

I guess in the amateur ranks it is all about numbers...it doesn't matter who they fight.
