What shot-to-pieces or untalented and flawed pro do you think you could have beaten?

    So, it's virtually impossible for anyone who hasn't trained at a pro level-or at least the elite amateurs-to even hang with the worst journeyman. However, we all know some fighters were so physically unglamorous and fundamentally ****ed that we couldn't imagine how they could even be in a boxing ring. Likewise, there are fighters so old, drained, or worn that they don't even throw round after round at some point.

    What fighter looked so bad in a fight that you thought you could at least outpoint him, or maybe go the distance with on that night after training in a camp?

    Never fails to make me laugh. I genuinely have no idea how they didn't **** themselves laughing at him bouncing around laterally with his hands tucked up under his chin and at those laughable feints at 1:13.

    There is one guy Hamed fought who looked like he had aids, all pale and sickly and like 118 pounds or something. I KNOW I could knock that guy out just like Hamed did.

    And I know everybody will say I am crazy, but I also believe I could beat Ivan Calderon by KO. Even though I'm only 133, I have a very fast swarming style that can be interrupted by POWER because I can be hurt, but I've never been beaten by a guy who wasn't strong enough to keep me from getting off - those fights always look like me all over a helpless guy. I am also eight inches taller than Calderon and can hit hard. I just can't keep it together as well because I am prone to cuts, bleeding, and my attack can be blunted by guys who punch hard. I really believe our styles are just all wrong for a Calderon match up. Someone like Cotto on the other hand stops me without breaking a sweat early in the first. I need to upload a picture of me and Viloria together. At the time I was 128 and he was 120, but I look twice as big as him.

    lot of names are already mentioned, and there are a lot more...
    I've seen "pro's" who couldn't even trow a decent punch, have no defence or talent whatsoever and have a chin that makes china look like concrete in comparison.
    I've seen guys coming in to gyms with ten times more talent and power on their first day, than some of the guys mentioned here.

    How (or even do) these guys train? And if they train in their gyms is there noone who could teach those guys some technic or convince these jokers not to turn pro?! I always have to laugh about posters here who say these "pro's" would beat almost every regular Joe in the street, not thinking about what it actually takes to become a "pro".
    In most countries you just get an easy physical, and you have to be signed in with a gym to get your pro licence... So almost anybody can get a licence and be a pro boxer... whoohoo, off you go towards your first KO defeat.

    If you have a iron chin and a lot of punching power from your own, you can beat most tomato cans just by walking them down.

    example in my weightclass:

    Calderon beat Miguel Cotto in the amateurs, I doubt power alone is enough to beat him. Its very likely you'd have yourself a very rude awakening.

    This I find it crazy that a guy weighing 30lbs lighter than me can beat me, but when I think about it, I could beat most guys weighing 30lbs heavier than me, unless they have some good boxing skills themselves. Infact, I hit harder than most guys weighing 30lbs more than me. So calderon would probably beat me, easily.

    That's when Cotto was a 105 lb boy, no? Probably when I get in there it would prove there's nothing I could do to him, but I don't see how. There's a big difference between a boy and a man. Cotto crushes Calderon in 35 seconds now. Auggie Sanchez has a win over Floyd Mayweather and I've been in the ring with him. The thing is its an amatuer win. Auggie kills me. I just don't believe Calderon would. And if he did, I bet he would not hurt me bad. If he can't stop 105 pound fighters he can't stop me.
