    Canelo when he faced Floyd. I bought into him very briefly and ashamed to admit it.

    Juanma Lopez...I thought he was a beast.

    Haye, really wanted to see him fight top guys

    Jermain Taylor, Andre Dirrell, I think that's about it.

    Sometimes it can be either hype or sometimes it can just be that a fighter got ruined. I feel it is a little of both for Jeff. Didn't he also ruin his arm or that he damaged his left shoulder badly and it was never the same ( or some ****) a little after the JC fight?

    Biggest hype job ever has to be Mayweather jr.
    People calling him an ATG & even TBE Claiming he is better than Ali Robinson etc ROFLMAO . Now it looks very much like he is nothing but boxings answer to Lance Armstrong Just another PED's abuser who's record should be erased. How embarrassing it must be for all you naïve people that fell for his BS

    Go start a petition, gofundme, and a kickstarter, maybe you will attract other emotionally disturbed Salt Water fans to your cause

    Jorge Linares looking at him move and throw combos, I was mesmerized, but the chin turned out to be grade level china.

    LOL You wish . People now see what a con job Mayweather always was. Without PED's NSAC. USADA & Vegas behind him I'm sure he'd have been long gone & forgotten. Now he'll just be remembered as another Lance Armstrong:hi:
