Mark Breland- overhyped disappointment.
Howard Davis Jr.-the real star of 1976 never won a world title as a pro.
Henry Tillman- beat Tyson twice in the amateurs never did nothing as a pro.
David Reid-style more for amateurs.
Leo Randolph-did not even like boxing.
Paul Gonzales-big star as amateur big flop as pro.
Daryl Anthony-Brelands only loss as amateur nothing more than a clubfighter as pro.
Duane Bobick-beat Holmes twice in the amateur and never developed as a pro.

@ Mars Hall When you are the #1 in the world it means something. Some of these fighters have been knocked out by bums. Meaning they do suck. Example Paul Gonzalez lost to an 8-11 fighter, Pepe Reilly lost to a 1-1 fighter. Bojado was said to be the next Chavez he's not even boxing no more. All these guys do suck.

Which of these records would reflect the fighter "sucked" as a Professional?!
Maybe some weren't long lived Professional careers, but it's not like any of them lost more than they won . . . I mean, 18-3. . . 34-3 . . . not too shabby at the Pro level if you ask me....
They ARE "Professionals", not amateurs!! ANYONE (including me!) could be an amateur . . . what does an amateur record prove?! You're good enough to beat people that AREN'T good enough to be "Pro"?!
Seems to me ALL of these guys were pretty good "Pro" fighters!!!
And Tyson got KO'd by Buster Douglas, you can't expect people to be perfect!! There are alot of things that factor in to someone's Professional life!! Doesn't mean any of them "sucked".

Howard Davis Jr.
Davie Armstrong
Clent Jackson
Roger Leonard
Terrell Biggs
The guy who beat Mike Tyson to go to the Olympics I can't think of his name but he won a Gold Madel Henry Tillman, These are my top bust. Oh Marvis Frazier.

Juan Manuel Lopez is better than Ricardo Lopez

Micky Ward. I wouldn't say he sucked as a professional, but he definately wasn't the best. He was definately unskilled but he had power, a great chin and heart.
