Mayweather was in a different class from Ricky. At his best,he would have given Pacquiao a more competitive go,but would still have lost.
Lloyd Honeyghan. He went from top 10 p4p in 1986 to frankly a third-rater from 1990 onwards, when he was hopeless at the top level. His performance against Mark Breland was unbelievably dire.
:goodthat was an embarassing performance. my hero, randy turpin fell apart quite rapidly as his punch resistance went. benny lynch's decline was even quicker
Wallace (Bud) Smith was on top of the world, having successfully defended his lightweight title against the man he won it from in Jimmy Carter. He then lost the next 11 fights of his career. Also, there was a South American jr. lightweight a couple years back that I recall being a real hotshot. His name was Victor Paz and was 57-1-1 going into his only world title fight. He lost and according to my harried math went about 17-46 the remainder of his career. Scartissue
Agreed, like I said, but nothing to be ashamed of still. Lots of fighters out there not in that league. :bbb
Always amazes me, s, when a pro could have a record like Paz's (don't care if he only fought in MIDDLE EARTH) 'n be totally off the radar.
mikkel kessler? how about jermain taylor and kelly pavlik none are atg but pretty damn good and were at their peaks at the time of their losses
