    Mosley - Who would want to fight Collazo. It was a big risk little reward.
    Winky - His fight with Hopkins. He wins, Bernard is an old man. Loses then people will say he was exposed.

    Vantage I'm part Cuban so I was thinking about adding Casa on to the list but he's had a great run and anyone who beats him is going to have rewards coming to him anyway you look at it, though his tough, rugged, slick style will cause issues for any fighter in his weight class. The man's aging though and no one really knows exactly how old he really is....F*cking Castro :twisted:

    Was Margarito, now Clottey. HBO wont even mention his name. The older Marquez brother is also generally avoided.

    Good name to put on the list. Junior Witter is only known within certain circles and hardcore fans, if a guy like Vivian Harris or Paulie where to lose to him they would be looked down upon. If they won....so what who the hell is Junior Witter anyway?? good choice.

    Augustus a few years ago maybe. I don't think he's that big a risk anymore for good fighter who knows what he is doing.

    Until recently, I'd have said McCall.

    Tony Tubbs can still be a notable obstacle for the up-and-comers...

    How about:

    Kofi Jantuah: Packs a punch
    Marcos Antoino Rubio: Packs a punch
    Roman Karizman: Determined to the T
    Corey Spinks: Excellent boxer and mover

    High Risk Low Reward written all over them
