    Bit Harsh, Prescott wasnt a big name at the time but he was undefeated and went on to argubally beat the european champ who gave khan trouble.

    I want to see Prescott - Maidana personally

    He was hardly a big name prospect though was he?

    This thread seems to have merged into "good fighters who lost early".

    Wallet, you're grumpy. You can give Francis a run for his money.

    I'm not sure if Hopkins was a big prospect.

    What about, Ortiz's first loss:p

    Tyson Fury losing to big John McDermott in their first fight. I know Fury got the decision, but everyone knows he was well beaten on the night.

    Steve Robinson lost a handful of early fight before gaining the WBO title.

    Prince Aaron was matched too hard too early and lost a couple - now is a top prospects.
