    Don't think Mugabi really beat anyone of note after Hagler. His best win after was over a guy that sprained or broke his ankle in the first round (I think it was) and couldn't continue.

    I never liked Lacy however they cursed him. They called him a “mini Mike Tyson”. Every fighter ever called this had their career prematurely end. It is a blight, a pox and a curse upon boxers. Don’t believe me...

    1. Gerald McClellan
    2. Avtandil Khurtsidze
    3. Jeff Lacy
    4. Gervonta Davis*
    *They kept calling Davis the mini Mike Tyson right before he could not put away a one-legged, shot to hell, old leprechaun in Gamboa. Time will prove me right on his career as well.

    Iggy was White Tyson, I think.

    If you had to guess, how do you think Gervonta's career will pan out?

    Gets stopped when his power can’t bail him out. Probably against the first real elite he faces. He keeps fighting cherry picks.

    Take the Leo Santa Cruz fight, Leo who fought at lower weights most of his career, was landing on Davis all night long. Davis power bailed him out there however I’d hardly call it a decent win.

    Go back to the fight before that against Gamboa and he couldn’t get Gamboa, who had one leg, out until mid twelve.

    Davis is supposed to be a mini Tyson “Tank” but when he moved up in weight class his power didn’t seem to get the forwarding address.

    Not exactly aged like milk, more aged like a bag of chips left open over night, still edible but less appealing than when you opened them originally: Spence-Brook

    Felt huge to me then, less so now.

    That was never a good win. There was some question over whether Ortiz would even be medically cleared until the very day of the fight. They targeted a medically unfit fighter.

    I would have to say Calzaghe over Lacy.

    Mugabi was amazing in that fight and undefeated with all KO'ES. Hagler beat the prime out of Mugabi though.

    Mugabi had feasted on pretty weak opposition, though. I see no reason to rate him that highly.
