    I don't get this. Two out of these three guys won world titles! Cooney was not a dud. He didn't win a world title, but was a very successful fighter. Give someone a break!!!

    ^Yeah, how the hell are you a dud if you became undisputed champion? Makes no sense.

    Buster became a bloated whale and stopped caring.

    Leon Spinks retired with journeyman record of 26-17-3.

    http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=000262&cat=boxer

    Look at the record of James Wilder and Johnny Carlo, fighters who Spinks lost to.

    i think cooney gave a good account of himself in his fight with holmes, but after that fight it was all downhill for gentleman gerry. i think he drank too much and was generally disinterested in boxing.

    Whatever happened to Michael Carruth - 1992 Olympic Welterweight champion from Ireland.

    I remember watching Ireland win a Gold and a Silver on that day. The Silver went to Wayne McCullough but what happened to the Gold medalist?

    Certainly made less impact than Wayne, Audley or Mr Amir for that matter...
