    That cut he had was grotesque.

    Jorge Solis 33-0 when fought Pac. Now he's missing in action.

    Seconded that Hatton, Calzaghe, Yory Boy don't belong in this thread. They all beat some legit fighters. This is for guys with great looking records who never beat anyone decent.

    Tyrone Brunsons ko record is a shameless sham from a guy too scared or untalented to create a legit boxing legacy.

    I disagree with you about Marciano, he had at the very least a good resume and the thread caption was fighters who weren't great. marciano was a great fighter.

    on that note, I think an interesting thread would be fighters who are good but don't have great won loss records. I would put your boy Friday in the list. He is a top 25 guy but because he is willing to take the tough fights he gets no credit. If he record padded he would be ranked by sanctioning bodies.

    Pretty smart approach to milking big $$ out of mediocre talent
