    I think Ricardo Mayorga did. He wasnt the most talented fighter during his day, but he made good fights and was hella entertaining. I was shocked when he beat Forrest twice, fighting as wild as he did.

    He was awkward, not fan friendly, just the epitome of all risk no reward. Think about his fights against Rocky Jaurez and Freitas

    Good call. I remember Larry giving him a light so he could smoke a cig after the fight. Tough dude if rudementry in skills.

    I disagree with you putting Tunney in that list. He had plenty of solid performances, and beat Dempsey a second time as well
