    Bomber Graham is normally the most common answer, but he had a few chances unlike Jim Driscoll & Len Harvey :think

    And "the gifted one"

    Natural talent but too erratic in his lifestyle

    Kirkland Laing - who beat Duran in 1982 on points in Ring Magazine "upset of the year"

    Then went off the rails for a year which he did often in his career

    From wiki:

    "Laing's boxing career was sporadic, as he often failed to deliver on his promise, appearing under-prepared against less able fighters and indulging in drink, drugs and women. In the year following his victory over Duran, Laing went missing, blowing his earnings. In that same period Duran was to fight four times, earning an estimated $6m."

    At one stage it was claimed Laing was homeless and living on the streets

    Graham was streets better than all the other names mentioned in this thread.. it looked like he won the first six rounds against ATG McCallum with his hands at his thighs
