    Lost 40 pounds in camp and is probably gonna drop at least 10 pounds by his next fight, probably more.

    His punches don't look like they have snap but he has heavy hands.

    I doubt he got paid anything worth mentioning for this farce.

    The only problem would be finding enough willing bums. Eventually you would run out and pick a guy with some actual talent.

    Not every HW has 37 KO's in 46 wins either.

    This isn't a disgrace at all. It just is what it is. It's a former champion past his prime coming off a one-sided shellacking and testing the waters with a no-name. This is commonplace.

    I highly doubt his next couple fights will be with fighters of this caliber.
     
  9. if other heavyweights keep fight scrubs with 9 and 16 records im sure they will.

    Exactly fighters do this all of the time. It's not like he's a champ right now...

    Quite a normal way of working his way back up again. Like Samuel Peter fighting bum of the month Ron Bellamy then moving his way up to cuddly Gabe Brown - and then beating Aguilera with an ugly stick.

    If Rahman is a disgrace then so is Sam Peter. Sam Peter has recovered from the low point of getting pumbled by Dr. Iron Fist. Nothing unusual.

    It's a shame that is is broke now and has to take more punches again. His health is as risk. He wants a fight with Tua next, a rematch.

    Just some recent opponents of former champions:

    Zab Judah: Ubaldo Hernandez 22-19-2

    Sam Peter's three opponents before Aguilera and after Chambers and Vitali K:

    Gabe Brown 18-12-4
    Ronald Bellamy 14-9-4
    Marcus McGee 22-16-0

    Pongsaklek Wonjongkam just before Kameda: Rodel Tejares 7-7-2
    (And since his title loss, THREE fighters on their debut fight)

    Marco Antonio Barrera's two opponents before Khan:

    Freudis Rojas 1-7-1

    Sammy Ventura 25-19-0

    (Sorry, Addie)

    I actually like the sound of Tua v Rahman III. Because chances are if he wins his next fight in a couple of days ( Tua that is ) he'll go back into hiding. Or fight another bum of the month like he fought last year.
