    I just read on Ring Magazine that when Judah was coming up the ranks he was described as Pernell Whitaker with Power.

    Gave me a chuckle :yep

    What are some other funny hype jobs that turned out not to be as good as there potential. Now I know Judah did do alot in Boxing, but being Pernell Whitaker with Power he was not!

    Another One - Jeff Lazy - The Super Middleweight's Mike Tyson

    :lol:

    Michael Grant- the savior of the heavyweight division. Out with the Brit, in with the New American. Time for the 6'9 Giant to dismantle the smaller man.

    How will Lewis react when he stands eye to neck against Grant the giant? Lennox is 6'5 245 to Grant's 6'9 255 Pounds. Lewis is at a size disadvantage here. Has he ever dealt with 250+ pounds of muscles? Brutal Power and youth like Grant?

    I think Rigondeaux could be called Whitaker with power.

    It was Kellerman who came up with that **** when Zab was coming up and Max was his main dick rider.

    A lot can be said about the American heavyweight scene, Chris Arreola being compared to Riddick Bowe, etc.. so I'll leave the heavyweights out of this..

    Cory Spinks being the next big thing and better than his uncle..

    Victor Ortiz being compared to DLH.

    Shoe Shining being compared as the Manny Pacquaio of China.

    Because an idiot in Kellerman was wrong as usual. His excuses after Judah got KOed by Tszyu were hilarious.

    Max LOVED himself some late-90's Zab.
