** Disappointing careers in boxing...**

naseem hamed, as someone else mentioned had so much more to give
ike ibeabuchi
audley harrison
ajose olusugun
joan guzman
ricardo torres
david haye

also wouldve like to see chris john capitalise on wins against jmm and juarez by possibly moving up to lightweight.

 

Mark Breland had an outstanding career in boxing. However he was suposed to become one of the all time greats, he didn't.

 

If Sanchez had not died and just retired after the Nelson fight he'd still be an all time great. He had allready put together a complete career at his young age. His death was tragic and who knows what he would have done. While there are a lot of what if's. Dissappointing is not the right word.

 

Eh...are we talking about unbeaten ATG and P4P #1 Floyd Mayweather Jr.?

Whilst I know FMJ wins in most if not all head to heads, it would have been nice to watch him do it.

 

It's easy to forget the hype surrounding Gerry Cooney before his fight with Holmes. The way his career turned out was ultimately a huge disappointment

 

Hardly a disappointing career though, do you agree?

 

G-Man was a future HOF'er

 

You beat me to it.
Always springs to mind on this subject.Thought Norris and Nunn would do more than they did,even though they did "achieve."

 

:huh
He died young in a car crash.How can any lack of achievement be termed"disappointing"?
Tragic would be a more appropriate description.

 

For the potential he had he should be knocking on the door of the top 10 ATGs yet he is content taking long vacations and not fighting the best since he moved to 140 and up.

He achieved a lot but still has a hugely dissapointing career, and i think that just shows how much he could have achieved.

 

Lem Franklin

Wilfredo Benetiez (I felt he could've achieved more if took training more seriously)

James Toney (Same as Benetiez)

Tommy Morrison (The HIV Poistive test really ****ed his life over)

 

Paul Gonzales
