    De La Rosa over Angulo? I know Angulo isn't a total star, but relative to each other I think it's a solid recent example.

    Braddock over Baer has got to be the finest example out there.

    That was against the odds, but was Buster a journeyman? To me a journeyman is a professional loser - someone who makes a living being fed to young prospects. Not sure if Buster had enough miles on the clock to qualify. I thought he was more of a wasted talent / busted flush - all the physical attributes but lost his way due to a lack of application. He was on the comeback trail before Tyson - had picked up wins against McCall and Berbick. Audley.. there is hope!.

    And Gavin Rees? he was unbeaten when he fought Souleymane M'Baye. He maybe hadn't stepped up but he was hardly a journeyman.
