    I thought that Tito's 6yr reign and 16 straight defenses was pretty impressive.

    Robinsons record at welterweight was impressive 73-1-1

    What are you talking about? He's about to fight Campbell for the WBO/WBA/IBF titles. The fight will be on Showtime.

    biggest waste of talent has to be ... Antonio Tarver ... should have 50 fights by now ...

    JC Jr has more fights than Tarver does and Tarver has been in the game since 97.

    Drugs, inactivity, and a ****ed up way of thinking is what has killed him in my book. He never followed through with the Roy Jones victory ... he acted like he had already accomplished what he needed to and developed an ego that even the nicest man would love to hate.

    Guzman is a 2-division champion and is going for his 3rd ... I don't think thats a waste of talent ... add to that, he's still undefeated.

    It has been long overude, but it's still a big fight. Maybe if he wins, the WBC champ will finally fight him.

    BigReg ... I don't like your avatar ... Spinks is one of my favorite "boxers" ... very underrated, very underappreciated.

    3. Floyd Mayrunner ducked the best fighters around so yes he is a waste of talent.

    2. Roberto Duran yes he was great but could have been so much more-did not even train before many of his fights.

    1. Hamed Naseem easily #1 he hardly trained and stopped fighting in his twenties. P4P he had amazing power and speed.

    Yeah, I like Spinks too(not as much as Zab). However, he got sent back to reality in this fight. He came to the ring dacing and ****, I believe Nelly made the ringwalk with him. He was promptly knocked out and humbled.

    He had great speed and power, but his boxing skills weren't great and his defence was terrible.
