    The protection of the "0" seems to be paramount in promoters minds these days...I would love for someone to point out to me a true ATG whose 0 was intact at the end of their careers...never losing means that you either have Godlike skills or have been matched soft

    these guys learn more in the gym than any fight they have.

    Groves will have got more out of sparring 12 rounds with Froch and Fragomeni than any of his 9 fights.

    If that's true then they're fighting the wrong people.

    David haye vs. Carl Thompson is a classic learning fight example. Haye lost and is a better man for it.

    Khan is most likely better for losing to Prescott, it's just a shame it happened after 20 fights rather than 10.
