    David Reid was fast tracked, the time was ticking on his career because of the eye problem that he had. He was told that the eye would get worse, and it needed to be fixed, but once fixed his career was pretty much over. So he took fights that he was ready for...Reid was actaully pretty good if you take that in mind. I really think that had he had 25 fights instead of 13 when he fought Tito he would have knocked Tito out...Just think 13 fights and he was fighting a top 5 p4p fighter, and did really well for the first part of the fight, and had Tito actaully running from him in the early parts.

    of course. thats why i din't vote for him .but some people still considered him a flop becuse of his few fight record and that he lost to a cop. plus being a gold medalist.

    Bennet hands down...former Olympian....turned out to be a total bust. Never made any noise as a professional.

    What's with the hate for Khan? Don't get me wrong, I'm no fan and I was hapy to see him get knocked out (just to hear the overhyping stop) but damn, let's give him a chance here; if Ruiz could come back from what Tua did to him, I think it is in the realm of possibility that Khan could make a few waves with some more work on his defense.

    Williams. He didn't even get nearly as far as Khan, and a lot of people thought he was going to be a star. Instead he ended up a junkie and an inmate.

    By Bennet, I assume you mean Michael Bentt? He might be the worst heavyweight beltholder in history, but heck, he won a heavyweight title. Not his fault he had a glass brain.

    both Bojado and Williams were FAR bigger flops than Khan.

    A lot of very new boxing fans around here...

    I will always remember Bentt teaching Morrison what it means to have heart.I read an interview with him a couple of years back, and he is a very intelligent, engaging guy. He had a line about WladKlit that I really liked:

    "He hooks of the jab like a mother****er."
