    According to this guy the master of angles Ray Robinson was a bum. Joe Mesi best heavyweight ever. Calzaghe and Ottke were so invincible they werent allowed in the same ring in fear of explosions

    His first loss came in his 17th fight. 2 years in the stint. He would go on to fight another 13 years.

    Long, and successful amateur careers means fewer early pro career defeats.

    Thank you for giving me a logical explanation and by not insulting me. You are right, maybe that's why the Cubans go undefeated a long way and it's because of their extensive amateur background. :good

    By fighting everybody he is a lot more proven than your overrated compatriots like Gamboa and Rigo. Gamboa is getting his ass KOed soon and someone will outwork Rigo big time. What is important in boxing and in life generally is not how you fall but how you get up. Pac showed that he can overcome loses and come back better and more prepared fighter. If you can't understand that you know **** about sports in general.

    No, I never said they were bad and I am not saying that Pac is bad! What I am saying is that he is not impossible to defeat like many think.

    If those Cubans lost early in their careers is because they probably started without much amateur experience ( like Pac too ) but since Chocolate fought 100 bouts as an amateur maybe that's why his first loss came when he was almost 50-0...
