The standard of boxing in Brazil is very, very poor. It's not like Argentina. His record isn't as impressive as it looks.
Ive been watching him for a while now. Cant really find anything on him but in his next fight he is facing Brazils best Cruiserweight. We will probably hear a lot more about Bezerra soon. Boxrec has a different amateur record. Won 96 (KO 68 ) Lost 2 (KO 0) http://boxrec.com/media/index.php?title=Human:536325
Actually I suppose your right, you don't hear about any boxers from Brazil really. I think its because they are more into the whole Ju Jitsu/mma etc.
Guys, I live in brazil and even in here, it´s impossible to find anything about William Fernando Souza Bezerra. There is a very strong theory that his record is false, because it´s impossible a guy with that record here in brazil stay unknown, we are always looking for a boxing talent and this guys appears beating a bunch of another unknowns guys with decent records.Another strange thing is that his manager is Mike Miranda, a guy with a padded record who got a chance to world title withou fight anybody of note and then quit in less than a minute of fight.His fight against Laudelino Barros is not confirmed,btw, i hope it happens because would answer alot of questions because Laudelino is a very capable fighter. P.S: I already talked about this boxers with false record in another thread in the past. http://www.eastsideboxing.com/forum/showthread.php?t=250062
Nothing strange here. The Romanians are a ***** bunch and do what they can to get a boxer up to respectable numbers in terms of records then ship them over to be beaten by British prospects. Sometimes a guy will have a fight, head back to the back, change into his referees uniform then head out to officiate the next fight. This is normally done at prospect level but they have been known to make the trend happen at a much higher level e.g Lucian Bute who has been manufactured as an elite world level boxer but is only being sent over to be fed to a Brit fighter after 30 fights. Don't be surprised if the next time you see Bute after his Romanian glass has been shattered by Froch, if he is donning the black and white striped referees garb.
Bernard Hopkins Manny Pacquiao Sonny Liston Floyd Patterson Sugar Ray Robinson was facing a guy he already beat during the padding phase and lost to him (LaMotta) Jack Johnson Juan Manuel Marquez Sergio Martinez Joe Louis Marvin Hagler Carlos Monzon (had 3 losses and 9 draws when he won his title) Do I really need to go on? Seriously, any time a person tries to bash the Klitschko brothers, you can be guaranteed that the person has no actual knowledge of boxing. Purrity had already drawn with Morrison and had an elite chin. Wlad's corner stopped the fight, not the ref, doctor or Wlad himself.
