    ....and terrible the next...I'm thinking James Kirkland...like the best 154lbr Knocking out El Perro and terrible the next fight...

    or how about Brandon Rios?...he looked like a different fighter againts Abril, terrible really....

    anyone have some more recent examples of fighters who look great/awful from fight to fight?

    i disagree...Amir is pretty consistent in his performances, except when he got caught against Prescott..

    Zab Judah had stopped Wayne Martell in one round, TKO'd Spinks in the 9th, TKO'd Rivera in the third... Then lost to Baldomir.

    most of the guys in the 80s who held the WBA hwt crown

    most would look great winning it and then get taken out in their first defense showing up in lack luster form

    Leon Spinks in his 2 fights with Ali
