    Ricky Williams was supposed to be better than Cotto, Pinto, Avdullaev, and Bojado coming out of the Olympics.

    There were a number of heavyweight prospects I listed in 2004 whose careers have gone absolutely nowhere upward since-

    Joe Mesi

    Faruq Saleem

    Juan Carlos Gomez

    Audley Harrison :patsch

    In fact, the only guys I listed that went on to do anything special were Calvin Brock (relatively speaking), Nicolay Valuev and Samuel Peter.
