Good fighters , not the greatest record

Post by Expug »

Lots of fighters out there who had a bunch of losses, but when you look closer, their record was deceiving.
They could fight.

Saoul Mamby. 45-34-6
Tough and slick. If you didn’t know what you were doing, he’d make you look bad.

Name some others..

Bob Stallings, the 1970s fringe contender. I think he was something like 22-20 when he defeated Earnie Shavers in 1974.

If you go to the YouTube comment section and watch Emmanuel Augustus videos his rabid internet fanbase (which was likely formed after a short "drunken master" highlight of his went viral) will try to convince you he was an all time great.
