    Decent forgotten world champs of the last 20 years



    20 years back to today
    Who can we recall who doesnt get too much of a mention and just seems to have been forgotten?


    - Freddie Norwood
    - Chris John
    - Acelino Freitas


    Start naming them and look out for my next ATG Tribute Thread coming soon

    There are a lot of forgotten champs but I was looking for the ones who had had a fair bit of success
    David Reid was a good call

    i would have to go with Chris Byrd at HW...had a decent reign by HW standards, had the ***** to face both K brothers making Vitali quit in shame and going the distance with Wlad first time around. not too shabby for a "blown up middleweight"
