Journeymen who turned it around

[Old bones Ian]

I remember Jimmy Vincent going on a decent run before fighting Barnes for the British Title. Tough bloke.

Thought Vincent deserved the win against Barnes

I only recall seeing a guy named Jimmy Vincent once, it was televised on ShoBox here in America. It's been so long I don't remember the name of the opponent, but I do remember thinking he won the fight so this may well be the one I saw.

It was a good fight, Barnes was fairly well touted in U.K.

Tony Booth had more wins than any current fighter, and fought for the British title at the time he was a “journeyman “. He also was a natural light middle but would take jobs up to Heavy.

Mike Weaver called himself a journeyman in a few early interviews
He definitely fits the bill

[Old bones Ian]

Someone mentioned Sugar Gibiliru earlier, he won the British Super Feather title, the title had a weird introduction back after a 20 year break with a string of champions losing it on their first defense, some journeymen type boxers did win the title in upsets.
Najib Daho 29-18-1 beating Pat Cowdell
Kevin Pritchard 22-19-3 beating Hugh Forde
Neil Haddock 10-9-1 beating Neil Armstrong

[Coco]

Anthony Hanna earned himself a shot at the British title, Howard Clarke got himself a world title shot!

[Old bones Ian]

Najib Daho also got a shot at the IBF world title after beating Cowdell

Loads of Filipino's like this
Rey Loreto lost his first 4 before turning things around and eventually fighting for a world title
Mark John Yap was 19-12 now 30-15
Gerpaul Valero went from journeyman to winner to journeyman. Went 1-13-3 to begin his career, then 17-14-3 then finished 22-22-4

But the one I really want to mention is Fel Clemente, Was 4-4-1 finished 13-13-2 (4) and route upset Jose Torres, Ernesto Herrera, had a VERY weird DQ loss to Danny Lopez, went the distance with Salvador Sanchez, Ruben Castillo and Rocky Lockridge

Good call.
Egded out an unbeaten Omar Sheika.

Very tough guy. He got no sh!t in jail. His kids are university educated. One at Durham.

Ovill McKenzie

Went 5-6 before putting sone wins together and even dropped losses to the likes of Ajisafe after.

Last match, arguably should have won a world title.

[PredatorHayds]

Geraint Goodridge is in line for a Welsh title shot.
He’s on a good run.
