    I was thinking more of young hyped up fighters who stepped up to early against an experienced pro. Thompson v Haye fits this bill well.

    Sanchez died in his prime. He wasn't no willy vet at any point.

    Compared to Neslon he was. Sanchez already had beaten Gomez and Lopez Nelson had 10 fights I believe

    We had Diaz v Campbell early on but Diaz was already an established world champ?

    Yeah, the war with Sellars, that fight where he was getting beaten up, then 1 punch KO'd the guy, two tough fights with Eubank, this was all before the Haye fight, so he went in with a lot of experience

    Could also fit into the fighters with to much heart for their own good thread. Has been in some absolute wars.

    ali-foreman?
    Floyd-canelo?

    Adam Etches v Serghey Khomitsky. Khomitsky was 40 years old when he schooled and took out Etches.
