Good fighters with rat tails

[JamesPhilips]

I think we’ve had mullets. But what about boxers with rat tails?

I just watched Rich the Boxing Historian’s channel and this excellent vid on Jesse James Hughes which made me think of this as there are two for one: Jesse James himself and Adrian Stone.



Others I can think of:

Kostya Tszyu
Michael Carbajal
Kerman Lejarraga
(Poss) Alex Garcia

I’m sure there are many more - there were some tough U.K. journeymen too - like Peter Buckley? and Ricky Beard

Any other candidates? (It’s a slow boxing news week! )

[JamesPhilips]

Surely Hector Camacho had one at some point?
Ray Mancini maybe

I don't recall Alex Garcia ever sporting a rat's tail.

Jorge Luis Gonzalez however...

Yeah you might be right

Eamon Magee and Darren Corbett had them in
Their early days. Early 90s Chav look.

Not sure why I had an image of Edwin Valero with a rats tail.

Seems I’ve lumped several dodgy hairstyles into the rats tail camp.

[margaret thatcher]

i think he had a mullet thingy going on, easy to mix the two

[Giancarlo]

I seem to recall Barry McGuigan had one early on in his pro career.

[orbtastic]

You’re not mixing him up with Dave mcauley are you?

You're right he did early on! Dave Macauley certainly did.

[kevo]

Didn’t Daniel Ponce De Leon have one? He seems like the type of fella to have one.

[Fray Bentos]

I am pretty sure the Mongolian Brits both had one - Shinny Bayaar and Choi - what are they doing with themselves these days? I hope they're well!

Shannon Courteney

How could we forget Slammin Sammy Scaff? Got a good view of the rat tail as he was laying face down after Tyson clobbered him.

Yep, I'd forgotten that, but thinking about it, MacAuley's was even better than Barry's.
