Worst managed careers in recent memory

Winky Wright, Kelly Pavlik and Jeff Lacey.

 

Juan Manuel Marquez -- seriously this guy was one hell of a fighter even before he faced Pacquiao but he only become well known to the public after his life and death battle with Pacquiao.

 

Anyone in Don King's stable. Devon Alexander, get out while you still can. That's going to be his downfall, mark my words.

 

Both Pavlik and Taylor while champs.

 

Yeah that's true, I heard he's leaving Youngstown for good and moving to Bolivia.

 

What did he do after the first fight?

 

Tyrell Biggs.Great skills,size reach,but he got thrown into the lions den with only 15 fights under his belt.

 

Winky Wright. This guy could be an all time great, and could still be beating champions to this day and hes not fighting. He wasted his prime.

 

David Tua.

Sergio Martinez until recently.

Rey Bautista was thrown to the wolves too early.

Chavez Jr. wasn't thrown to the wolves early enough.

 

You can't get any more mistreated than Augustus. :fire

 

Unless some exciting things start happening soon, Alexander Povetkin.

 

Augustus' beef is more with hater judges than with management. He got plenty of opportunities.

 

Jaidon Codrington the guy was put against allen green on his 9th fight when allen was 17-0!!!!!! with about 16KO's. Also the fight was arranged on short notice!!!

 

Agreed... Both guys were on top of the world when they became champions... Then fkd it all up.

I'm not saying they should have cherry-picked opponents,,, but:

Taylor vs Winky, Spinks and Ouma back to back... Thanks Lou. :good

Pavlik vs Hopkins, two nobodies... then Martinez... Not a good plan. :bart

 

He got his shot at redemption, and lost on national TV in the contender finale - by knockout - to someone who isn't really a knockout puncher.

He was never going to be a division kingpin with that chin.
