How did Alfredo Evangelista ever get 2 title shots?

Somehow though, Evangelista went on to beat Renaldo Snipes for the biggest win of his career. Alfredo had a pretty long career, actually. He was a decent journeyman, but never deserved his title shots. He was the European Scott LeDoux.

 

Renaldo should be ashamed for losing that fight to Alfredo.At least Greg Page laid him out.

 

Are you serious? :rofl Larry didn't even start to box Professionaly until 1973 and didn't earn credibility as a serious contender until 1978 when he beat an aging Shavers. So no, he was not in any way ahead of any of Ali's challengers in the 60s...his amateur record was also brief at 19-3.

Unless you wanted to see a very green Holmes who was barely into boxing in the 60s get pummeled by Cassius Clay(back then)

 

Don King, Don King, and also, not to be forgotten, Don KIng. Start, middle, and end of why he got two shots.

 

Snipe started getting in trouble with law due to coke habit, was arrested for drugs and beating up girlfriend. He was good fighter, not the best contender ever but a dangerous one to some degree. If Snipes stayed clean he likely beats Evangelista.

I also have to add, whoever that woman he hit was, she must have some chin.
