    Kelvin Seabrooks tuned an 18-12 career into being world Bantamweight titlist in a 27-22 career.

    Freddie Pendleton survived a 15-13 start to his career, to be arguably the best Lightweight titlist for a couple of years, post Whitaker. Pendleton finished with a 47-26 record.

    Neon Leon Spinks of course became the Heavyweight Champion of the World in his 1978 upset of Ali, then it was downhill and Neon Leon finished with a 26-17 resume.
