Bump! Since the last update, Eric Morales finally popped a cherry of worth by defeating Pablo Cano (he does have a victory over 1-0 Alfonso Mota, so his total stands at 23-0-1). He can add to this total by defeating Danny Garcia in a couple of weeks. Lucien Bute also popped his first cherry by defeating Jean-Paul Mendy (29-0-1) The Problem, Adrien Broner, popped the cherry of Eloy Perez. He's currently 30-0-3. Nathan Cleverly defeated Tony Bellew to run his total to 58-0. Guillermo Rigondeaux has taken two consecutive cherries (Willie Casey and Rico Ramos) and now has a current total of 31-0 in nine pro fights. Pretty good...except... Kazuto Ioka defeated the 8-0 Yodgoen Chalermchai in his last outing, bringing his nine fight total to 43-0-1.
Good one IB. What do you make of Hasegawas unlucky number round 4 stoppage losses in the past few years? Were you ever on the bandwagon of him creeping into P4P lists? What do you make of his recent comeback win?
Honestly, upon seeing the thread freshly bumped today my first thought was that you'd beaten me to doing HH. After reading your actual post I yelled "**** yeah, Minto!!" :yep The losses explain away simply enough. Montiel and Gonzalez are offensive superheroes. :good I was always a vocal supporter of HH as a major p4p player (despite not actively maintaining a list myself)...even after his, ahem, minor setbacks. :!: Really glad he destroyed Felix. Not a waste at all, despite FCF technically being a crape opponent with a heavily padded zero. HH probably feels like a million dollars right now - or rather, like a Godzilla movie with a hundred million dollar budget. That is important as he works his way back up to "real" featherweights. Obviously it ranks a distant second/last behind Burgos among his best wins at the weight so far...but good win. Confidence booster at home, always nice.
Too Lazy to read the whole thread, but here are two contributions : Matthew Saad Muhammad (Franklin) = 67 James Coakley : 4-0 Lottie Mwale : 21-0 Marvin Johnson : 15-0 Marvin Camel : 14-0 Mate Parlov : 12-0 Wayne Mcgee : 1-0 William Joppy : 81 Howard Eastman : 32-0 Jonathan Reid : 24-0 Shinji Takehara : 24-0 Dwayne Tennet : 1-0
Bryant Paden - 3-0 Shlomo Niazov 7-0 Roland Commings 3-0 Owen McGeachy 10-0 Ivan Gonzalez 18-0 Sal Cenicola 14-0 Antonio DeBarros 55-0
Artur Grigorian Matt Zegan 24-0 Michael Clark 24-0 Marc Rudolph 13-0 61 Interestingly, if you take away the terrible reffing job by Cotton in his one career loss to Popo Freitas you could arguably have added another 34 for a grand total of 95. :think (one of the four knockdowns officially scored by Freitas was legit; the next three were slips and totally botched calls by Cotto resulting in three consecutive 10-8 rounds. That's a minimum three points and possibly up to a six point swing back in Grigorian's favor. Maybe without the discouragement of all those calls going against him, he rallies better and nicks a couple of the late rounds where Freitas became unwilling to engage...)
