    Think back this past year about some fighters who were exposed to be one dimensional. I have made a list of some fighters who fit the bill ...

    1. Breidis Prescott - true a one dimensional fighter
    2. Antonio Margarito
    3. Chris Arreola
    4. Rocky Juarez
    5. Vic Darchinyan - almost showed me something but then went back to his old self against Agbeko
    6. Kid Diamond - supposed to be the next Kostya Tszyu, but just turned out to be an aggressive punching bag.
    7. Jeff Lacy
    8. Junior Witter
    9. Juan Diaz
    10. Edison Miranda

    If you guys have more let me know ...

    I gotta agree. Prescott is great at knocking out glass chinned bums.

    Tito wasn't one dimensional ... he was a complete boxer who got caught up in knocking guys out ... he had a run of like 3 or 4 straight knockouts at one time ... he wasn't too concerned with boxing.

    If you look at Tito's fights with DLH, Cherifi, Jones, Whitaker, and Vargas ... he wasn't just a left hooker ... this guy was a complete boxer ... great movment, great jab, great right hand, good inside fighter, good outside fighter ... never took a step back ... always shuffled to the side.

    If anything, towards the end of his career he became a little predictable ... he would shufffle his feet when he was loading up on his right and he also dipped to the side (hesitantly) when he was ready to throw his left hook ... he was trying to spring into it.

    Margarito shouldn't be on this list ... I know that I put him in there in the begining but he's actually a pretty good boxer ... he's just bit slow ...
