    Peter McNeeley (well more like D level) for wrapping Tyson in a "cocoon of horror" and generally just being the perfect opponent for the occasion, played his part perfectly

    I have it more like this:

    A+ Level fighters are top 5 in their weight class consistently. Guys who were multiweight class world champions, were supremely dominant, etc.. Examples: Ray Robinson, SRL, Ali, Tyson, Joe Louis, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Pacman, ODLH, Hearns, JMM, RJJ, Hopkins

    A Level fighters are top 10 in their weight class consistently. World class fighters who are supremely dominant, are world champions multiple weight classes but are not (or at least not yet) ring legend materail. Examples: Wlad, Lennox, Mosley, Cotto, Kessler, Ricky Hatton

    B Level Fighters are top 20 in their weight class. Guys who are Intercontinental/Regional level champions, who may touch a world title but not for a significant amounts of time or duration. Examples: Gatti, Paul Williams, Pavlik, Helenius, Haye, The Drunken Master, Arreola, David Tua

    C Level Fighters may never be top 20, but are accomplished and respectable. They max out at a regional or national title. Examples: Fres Oquendo, Tyson Fury, Chop Chop Corley, etc..

    THere are many but Hector Lopez comes to mind , he had A level skills and chin but just fell a little short in title fights..Or close lossess.. Thought he edged a young but already world class Kostya Tszyu.. Not a robbery but the scorecards were way off and decision booed.

    Marvin Sonsona- The young kid from General Santos.

    The kid was was 19 when he won the WBO championships.Then pressure was placed on his shoulder to fight better/tougher boxers at that early stages of his career.The trainer, promoter, and managers to this day blame the kid. Saying the kid was partying and not taking boxing seriously. Well, the kid is 19 and it's too much to ask a lot from a boy that age. Pac was KTFO that many times in that period of his career too.I believe the promoter and manager is as much to blame.Anyway he broke ties with those promoters and has made handsome amount of money.I guess it's partly the reason he took the monumental challenge just for some cash.But I still think he has the most potential.Unlike Bum Bum, Banal, Ciso Bums.Interestingly,there might be another kid from General Santos that's going to be campeon soon, Saludar! Must be something in the water in Gensan.
