Can you name amateur fights where two future professional champs met?

    Did that German kid Jurgen Brahmer pick up an alphabet belt?

    Beat Ricky Hatton in ams at welter, southpaw Brahmer knocked him down.

    Sven Ottke also fought and lost to Henry Maske.

    Good ol' Sven.

    A hundred years from now, when all the old VHS tapes of Sven deteriorate, people are going to wonder "who the hell was this Sven Ottke and why was he so overlooked? And why did Calzaghe duck him?"

    245 amateur wins. Undefeated as a pro. Retired after unifying two belts.

    Sven Ottke = the next Harry Greb? (LOL)
