What "C LEVEL" Fighter has an IMPRESSIVE RESUME???

I follow this defintion and include jobs on my CV where I was laughed out of the interview :good

 

That is a negative there sir. Hatton didn't walk through **** against Tszyu. He smothered him because Tszyu's punches are powerful at the end not beginning, he took the range away. If Hatton tried walking down mitchell he would have been sidestepped/countered/embarrassed/bloodied to an easy 12 round ud loss.:thumbsup

 

This.^^

 

the tomato can specialist - valero!

 

I think of a "C" level fighter as a guy like Grady Brewer. Unless an undefeated prospect is the real deal Grady will take 'em to the wood shed. That's why he has a number of wins over prospects who previously looked pretty good. He also consistently beats the crap out of club fighters and other journeyman, but every time he has tried to step up to the next level he lost.

 

Sharmba was better than C-level. A very good 140 lber in his prime.

Id say Manuel Medina, 5x featherweight titlist who fought in an eliminator just last year. Beat Scott Harrison, old Kevin Kelly, Frank Toledo, Victor Polo, Alejandro Gonzalez, Polo-Perez, Tom Johnson and Troy dorsey. And good fights with Hamed, Espinosa and Ingle.

 

He had too many upsets for it to just be some coincidence.

 

How many convincing upsets?

Clottey - dubious disqualification.

Judah - mentally **** the bed.

Gatti - shot, blown up.

How many convincing upsets?

 

Exactly, well defined. Baldomir and Brewer are both C level in that regard. If Brewer stumbled into a title opportunity where the titlist just rolled over, he wouldn't suddenly cease to be C level.

 

this has always bothered me, especially if they lost a one-sided fight, somehow their resume goes up in value after getting an ass whooping. :-(

Put me in there against every top boxer out there and Ill be a boxing legend in no time.

 

You don't differentiate at all between someone remaining game and competitive with top fighters, and someone getting blown out and dominated by the same?

Case in point: you have someone like Giovanni Andrade, who's faced a lot of good fighters and been smashed. You certainly have to rate him a lot lower than guys like Terdsak Jandaeng and Diosbelys Hurtado, who have lost to the best they've faced but in far gamer efforts.

 

That was the point I was trying to make actually.

I see value in competitive losses by not by lopsided ones

Well, in my estimation Jandaeng and Hurtado have decent resumes and Andrade has kind of a shitty one - even though all three have faced a buttload of elite competition. So just because you lose doesn't mean your resume is bad...obviously it would be better had you won those fights, but how you perform in a loss is important. :good

 

He did not beat N'dou He was awarded the victory the fight was a robbery.
