    Mickey Ward and Emanuel Augustus spring to mind.

    Journey Man != Gatekeeper.

    I'd say someone like Boone because of the high profile fights hes been in.

    In the UK perhaps Sprott.

    Emanuel Augustus or Darnell Boone. Those guys are damn good boxers too, way better than their records suggest.

    Emmanuel Augustus fight anyone , anywhere, anytime.
    If he'd had a good team behind him & taken himself seriously he could have been a champion. Many of the fights he "lost" were blatant hometown robberies anyway. Hurry up & get well Drunken Master
