  1. Donaire after beating darchinyan.
    Mosley after margarito - I know he got the PVC fight but it took so long.
    Hopkins after pavlik.

    Martinez has beaten P. Williams, Pavlik, Cintron (**** that decision) and well isnt really getting the Superstar money he deserves vs Dzinziruk next? i believe, feel free to fill me in if Im wrong, as I havent heard numbers for that fight but Dzuk as an opponent doesnt equate to huge money?

    Mosley after beating Oscar. Just think if he choose Six Heads Lewis or Mayorga to fight on HBO instead of Forrest. He'd be a PPV man instead of a PP man. It all happens the way it does for a reason though:

    Donaire may yet still capitalize... He hasen't lost since Darchinyan. He is a very marketable fighter, which should get a big money fight.

    Bobby Joe Young blew it or had it blown for him after knocking out Aaron Pryor.

    Not on the level of some, but Paul Jones upset Verno Phillips and never got anything for it.

    Not quite the same thing, but Alex Garcia forgot to cash in that alphabet ranking...

    He got a shot at Brown, what else did he deserve?

    Supposedly could have got around $20m for the LEwis rematch but ended up with $6m

    Raheem deserved the Freitas and Juarez fights too JG, which came either side of the Morales win. He was in limbo after the Freitas 'loss', then ended up getting flatened by the giant Funeka

    Raheem stylistically would have been a good foil for Pacquaio if he got that fight

    Laing was a headcase who's discipline never matched his ability. One of the most talented Brits never to have won a world title.

    Jones never really impressed after his bout with the then Cassius.
