    Leon Spinks could have been very good had he not been very heavily into drugs.

    Oakland Billy Smith - a talented fighter from the 40s and 50s. A brilliant puncher with good skills. By all accounts had the potential to be a good fighter, but seems to lacked the mental fortitude needed as his losses to Paul Andrews and Archie Moore (where he ran from the ring after being floored) demonstrate.

    Leon Stinks, James Tillis, Eddie M. Muhammad, Tony Ayala, James Toney, Frank Bruno, Tim Spoon, Juan LaPorte, Robbie Sims and Roberto (Late in his career) Duran..... Plus, many others I can't think of right now.....

    NOW!! Duran and Toney are considered GREAT fighters of the past, but they played their games overall and have created quite a stir in RECENT memory....

    Good call on James Scott. I was sure he fought Spinks, but I can't find any record of it.

    MAB'S mastery of Hamed is to me the highlight of the decade..as you say, an incredibly satisfying fight.
