    Bika will fight Brinkley to become Bute's mandatory challenger. The fight will take place by mid June at the latest, in Montreal or Quebec.

    Cunningham did actually fight last year. But he still should be a lot more active...

    Doesn't count. Mosely's already had a full career and boxing politics had more to do with that than anything.

    If you really want to know how to waste a career, just watch Golota. Wasted talent.

    Cunningham, Spinks and I think Collazo are all Don King fighters. All his fighters are very inactive these days, those guys would be better off with Gary Shaw or Goosen-Tudor they at least get their guys action.

    Spinks has got the best out of his skillset, been a champ a few times. Too old and done to much to ever be called a waste

    less than 1% of all boxers become a world champ so to call any of these a waste is pretty pathetic.
