    he was the rightful champion and unifier of every world title at 175 lbs and won another world title at cruiser. Far from a fraud.

    Bojado. I kept reading posts raving about this guy and looked forward to seeing him in the ring. When I did I saw a little pudgy guy who had very little talent. Short arms, slow reflexes, no defense and not in any condition a fighter has to be in to make a mark. Bojado is a slow and lazy guy who seems to lack any interest in improving.

    everyone except audley doenst deserve the fraud marking.

    clinton woods was always a tough yorkshire terrier he said it himself he just likes fighting.

    mora wasnt that hyped he was just a undefeated fighter who was on the contender...he is a rich man no need to fight unless he wants to

    lacy was a good olympic hopeful destroyed robin reid and took on the best man at 168...that is not fraud like...if your blaming lacy for being a fraud on his shoulder injury long lay off and that no one wants to fight him.

    and maccarinelli was never thought of as a man to beat haye. he is a good cruiserwieght tall and lanky and can make the wieght easy has one hell of a punch but his skills are a bit weak. he is laggy in the ring and his defence was never that good. good cruiser nothing more.






    if i were to say a fraud my man has to be adrian dodson
    dodson was a great amatuer at welterwieght. and had all the tools great long jab southpaw right hook and a good left cross. really good boxerpuncher.beat an old honeyghan and wins a intercontinental belt.

    fights winky in dodsons home town and awfully got outboxed and exposed as one paced and couldnt mix his defence and offence together.but this is winky wright who most knew was not a bad fighter...so he blames his wieght draining:yep at 154 and goes up to 160 wins a couple of fights and is put in with a real chump called mpush......adrian got beaten SO badly it was unfunny...rematch and the same thing happend again

    by then his charm has gone and losses again and again.

    where as other guys fight well look good then get better or peak....dodson just seemed to lose for no reason. when winnign fights he would switch off.


    any brits rememebr this guy

    My post was the product of afternoon drinking.:D
    Anyway i totally disagree.Ive been a fan for nearly 30 years,and have always thought its far easier if youre American,though it used to be far worse before The IBF and WBO.
    It was a nightmare for Euros with just the WBC and WBA,as they were mainly there to serve American fighters and promoters.

    As a kid,i used to feel really sorry for European fighters;It was-British-European,and around 40 fights before you even got a world title eliminator,while American crap like Johnny Bumphus,Gene Hatcher etc would get one after about 20 fights.
    And our fighters were knocking each other off for the world title fight too;After 20 fights A Brit would get British title fight, whilst An American would get world title fight.And they werent all Ray Leonards by any stretch.
    I never understood why Euros bothered to be honest,it was all so rigged in favour of Americans.
    Sorry just revisiting something i hated as a boxing fan as a kid.

    None of these guys are frauds. The only thing close to a fraud in boxing is someone who beats up on 20 tomato cans with no chance, get's a world title fight, get's outclassed and quits.

    None of these guys fit that billing.

    They all laced them up and got it on with good fighters. If you're in the fraud business, picking boxing where you get your face beat in for a couple 100k might sound decent, until you stretch that 100k out over the 5 to 6 years it will take you to get that title shot.

    You'd do better to be working a real job.

    Most boxers aren't getting rich, and when they DO get that payday, it's after years and years and years of not making ****.

    Any fighter that sits in a comfy cradle sucking his thumb and not meeting the best while fighting well below his level is a fraud.

    I cannot understand how Ottke was a fraud, even if he had some close fights/robberies or whatever, he still has a VERY credible resume. If some people would actually look at his record for once they'd realise this. So maybe he lost a fight or two he was given the decision for but he still beat a lot of decent fighters.

    What exactly are guys like Glen Johnson or Mundine, if they were legitimately beaten by the biggest fraud out there?

    Frauds are guys who didn't deliver at all, guys like Fraudley and Grant.
