    Mickey Ward and Emanuel Augustus spring to mind.

    Journey Man != Gatekeeper.

    I'd say someone like Boone because of the high profile fights hes been in.

    In the UK perhaps Sprott.

    Wasn't ward a champ after he beat gatti?
    Can a champ still be considered a journey man after they become champion?:huh

    Emanuel Augustus or Darnell Boone. Those guys are damn good boxers too, way better than their records suggest.

    Emmanuel Augustus fight anyone , anywhere, anytime.
    If he'd had a good team behind him & taken himself seriously he could have been a champion. Many of the fights he "lost" were blatant hometown robberies anyway. Hurry up & get well Drunken Master
