    He's just the UK version of Tyrell Biggs, no different ability level at all.

    The question of what went wrong may take more than one thread to answer.

    Too mentally weak for the pro game.

    You can hide behind a head guard and only 3 rounds in the am's

    in a 12 round fight, you'll get found out

    Turned pro too late ,fame went to his head, over promoted, fought shite when he shouldve stepped up, didnt take it seriously enough but mostly he didnt have the talent or heart.Like someone else mentioned he was visibly scared of getting hit.

    His performance in the first Danny Williams fight was a disgrace, worse even than the Haye farce.

    Ok people say over promoted, and turned pro late, who were his promoters? and surely he could of at least been moved fast through the process with the right team given his profile and gold medal.

    Mate he probably could have moved up quicker, but as has been said before he already had the fame, the money, the gold medal and the profile, and on top of that he was scared to get hit or mix it in the ring with anyone who was serious so where was the motivation for him to do so?

    Well the fame was rather incomplete as there was still a lot left to be filled, who was his trainer back then?

    All the biggest names of the era avoided him. If he wasn't so avoided he could have wins over both Klitschkos, who probably would have faded into obscurity by now, and practically every belt holder between 2003/4 and now. Imagine Harrison-SNV? If he'd won that one we could have been seeing Manny-Harrison now, instead of the mismatch Manny-Vitali

    He was born with pure china in his mandible. :nod

    Fraudley was a joke, no doubt. But because of his pathetically fragile whiskers, we got to see him laid out COLD, like this!!!
