    This man has never scored a knockout. Does anyone know if he's ever scored a knock down?

    I heard he had Rahman hurt in their last fight.

    Don't know about a KD.

    That would've been quite a feat.

    Does Lawrence have one of the worst starts for a name fighter?

    Guy's first four fights:

    0-1-2-1

    Didn't win until fight #5

    Yeah, amatuer who turned pro solely for money without proper training and representation.

    Lawrence had talent, probably could have been a real contender under different circumstances, but he had an awful start and truthfully, an awful career.

    If he does have any measure of power, he lacks any killer instinct to follow up on it.

    That's true. He'll be a gatekeeper of sorts for a few more years I imagine.

    How was he as an amateur?

    GoldenGloves champion I believe. Lately he's less of a gate keeper and more of a trial horse.

    Guinn's taken his place as the HW gate keeper. McCline technically is still a fringe contender, sad division.
