Wasted talents?

lawrence clay bey, and to an extent because he doesn't settle down, learn and implement conventional boxing techniques, jason litzau

 

Joe Calzaghe.

Very good fighter who could've been great if he had fought other greats in their primes.

 

Testament on how 1 fight can completely ruin a fighter.

 

danny williams, if he had the right mind set and conditioning he could of accomplished alot more

 

Ricky Hatton.

Oh, wait. I thought you said wasted and talentless.

 

Mark Breland
Chris Eubank (Not enough big fights to make his mark)
James Toney (may seem harsh, but his eating got in the way of a top 40 ATG career)
Fraudley (No heart)
Riddick Bowe
Zab Judah
Aaron Pryor (drugs spoiled potential fights with Duran, Hearns and SRL)
Jermain Taylor (If he has more about him he could've had Pavlik and Froch out early and still be undefeated!!)
Naseem Hamed (Lacked desire)

 

Zab Judah and Andrew Golota. Also stupid Tommy Morrison, I know he won a couple belts so maybe that's not a wasted talent but he sometimes didn't bother to train for fights and drank, did coke and hookers.

 

Ike Ibooboochi
kirkland- he looked good!

 

My Fav fighter Floyd Money Mayweather, all the talent in the world, just will not step up to the plate, He fell in love with his O, but he still has a chance to turn it around.

 

Toney could have done much more - a vast resume, but it could have been even more dense.

Edit: sorry, Toney already mentioned... don't think anyone's said Calzaghe yet; another great career that could have been much greater.

 

Calling JMM, JL Castilo and De La Hoya sparring partners is a grave insult to great champions.

Zab Judah belongs on this list more than most others, along with Ibeabuchi and I'd like to also make an argument for Mike Tyson. The man could've done so much more if it weren't for the prison time, the women and the distractions.

 

LMAO with PBF being labeled as wasted talent.:rofl:rofl

Zab Judah is wasted talent Ike Ibeabuchi was wasted talent. PBF is not learn the difference.:deal

 

RJJ was P4P #1 for years and considered the best fighter of his era and a top 20 ATG horrible move putting him on the list.atsch

 

:deal
