    the reason i ask is because im thinking of jermain taylor and his career.

    hes had 3 losses in 4 fights and didnt make it to the final bell in two of those fights.

    something is making me think that even with these brutal losses, he can still get some last minute glory or make a big break.

    a man in his situation becomes dangerous and someone with nothing to lose.

    Not only a very good chin but good jab,excellent left hook was accurate like a laser,put good pressure on.

    Very good fighter.

    Dare I say Roy Jones Jr? After he was knocked out by Tarver and Johnson, he clearly was not the same fighter he was while in his prime, but he has still managed to pull off a few more good wins since then and still fairly highly regarded.

    Henry Armstrong went 1-3 in his first 4 fights and got KO'd but went on to become top 3 ATG and multi-weight LEGEND. :good

    IMO that doesnt even count. I love to see the reaction of Taylors corner when they announced the decision. :lol: Debella looks like someone died and then he hit the lotto right when they announce it. To this day I want to know how one of the judges gave Taylor the last round. Total BS:-(

    Ike was the truth. Could never understand why he was so inactive.
