    shavers had some serious power. i think Ricardo williams had a **** load of talent but no desire.

    bojado was promising

    Good shout for Ernie Shavers. Guy had absurd power. I have no idea how Holmes got up from that punch. He also had a shot that almost took Ali's head right off.

    I would say Earnie Shavers, if it had been another era he would have definitely picked up a world title, especially in todays era

    You can add Carl the Truth Williams to this group to supremely gifted,but he wasnt very dedicated Langford,Burley,and Shavers are the no brainers.

    He already fulfilled his lifelong dream! What are those Brits complaining about? :D And why am I complaining about the Dutch who don't know wich way to point their gloves? We already had a Heavyweight Champ, only he lost it to the unstoppable A-Force! :lol:
