    Seriously though, Eric Lucas was only supposed to fight for regional belts and won a title.

    Opinions early on are subjective-- many are biased haters, including industry people like coaches, trainers, Teddy Atlas, etc. All have their own motives.

    Floyd was a very good amateur. They called him pretty boy because he would emergence from sparing without a mark on him.
