    The Body Snatcher Mike McMcallum at least by most of the ESB posters here.

    Wins of Julian Jackson, Donald Curry, Herol Graham, Steve Collins, Michael Watson to name a few. 3 fights against James Toney and going the distance with Roy Jones Jr despite being way past his prime.

    Good call.
    Gave the Marvelous One all the trouble he could handle.
    Didn't enjoy training too much though, I hear....

    How exactly did Mark Breland achieve 9 out of 10 on that basis? He is the epitomy of an under-achiever given his skills and talent.
