HOW ABOUT BUCK SMITH? HAD A GOOD RECORD BUT FOUGHT ANYONE OFTEN AT SHORT NOTICE

[Expug]

Buck Smith is a great call. Hop in the car and go. Put about a million miles on his car.

[SaadOffTheDeck]

A cut above, but fun guys to watch fight.

Kevin Pompey
Tony Marshall
Rodney Moore

[Expug]

Kevin Pompeys another great call. The interesting thing is,I think his Dad was Yolande Pompey,who was the same type of fighter. Maybe he was a contener I'm not sure.

[NazNaci1]

Mickey Hughes - Great one punch KO power but too much of a plodder. Lost most of the time to guys on the up but he did ice Gary Jacobs, who had a great chin, with one shot after getting pummeled round after round.

James Hughes
Anthony Stephens
Damn, I loved that fight.
Too bad Hughes died.
Does Brazier count? Fought several top fighters and lost every time, but gave Mayweather a very tough fight for the title. Had well over 100 fights.

[Rover]

Jaime "Rocky" Balboa
I'll never forget the first Coley fight. It was on USA's Tuesday Night Fights.
I stayed home from school that day so I could watch the opening statements in the O.J. trial.

[polecateddy]

Marion 'The Creep' Wilson. Never stopped (apart from once by a cut) and once drew with Ray Mercer. Still good enough when he was 52 years old to go the full 8 rounds with Oliver McCall and 4 with Chazz Witherspoon!

...although I see someone else has picked him.

[polecateddy]

Demetrius Davis was a rangy 6 foot super-middle weight journeyman, who at his peak was a right handful!

[Expug]

Also Chicagos Randy Smith. Fought all the best middles in the eighties and never stopped.

[Rover]

Swindell (at heavy; the LH version fought for belts twice).

[Rover]

demarcus corley

At jr. welter? He held a belt there and was a top 10 contender for several years.

[Rover]

Cliff Couser.

[Rover]

Mauro Gutierrez.

Yes Buck always turned up at short notice and gave it a go and he was a really good fighter

Yes Brazier counts. At one point he was scheduled to fight Chavez (probably because Chavez had nobody else to fight). For whatever reason the fight didn't happen which was a shame for Harold...a decent well earned payday

Marcos Geraldo
Quick Tillis
Lenzie Morgan
Jorge Amparo
Larry Middleton

[Controversial]

Quick Tillis

I wouldn't call Tillis a journeyman as he fought for the title. He was a decent fighter and ended up being a name for the up and comers. My definition of a journeyman is someone who holds his own against the best, normally loses, and never gets a title shot himself.

Yes.I agree with your definition. Quick was a solid contendor for awhile there.

My favorite journeyman was Dayton heavyweight Tom "Roughhouse" Fischer. Fought Dokes on the Ali-Holmes undercard in his biggest fight, but also went the distance with Spinks, Tillis, and Jimmy Young. He was a bar bouncer, floor installer, and had a Christmas tree lot ("Tom's Christmas Trees"!) as side jobs.

[bluerosekiller]

I was always fascinated by the career of Chicago trial horse/journeyman Danny Blake.
He engaged in 63 pro fights between 1982 & 1995 at middleweight thru heavyweight. With his main attribute in the ring being his incredible durability & toughness. He was a VERY rugged guy that was never stopped inside the distance. With all his losses coming via decision. Pretty impressive considering the level of opposition that he faced.

Great call. I was gonna mention Danny. I fought on the same card with him once or twice. What a chin he had. Man was he tough. He also kod Lenny Lapaglia twice.

[polecateddy]

Went the distance with a young Shannon Briggs I see.

[Expug]

Danny was not a big guy at all. He definitely had a middleweight frame.
