    Ray Leonard got a split decision over Hilmer Kenty in the '73 Golden Gloves.Kenty not an ATG, but a very good fighter at one point.

    Perhaps not quite ATG's, but Larry Gains and Max Schmeling fighting in 1925.

    Bobby Chacon and Danny Lopez were big West Coast attractions, but they were far from international stars. Both went on to become IBHOF members, and big stars who put asses in seats.
