Boswell was the first half decent (ok, one-sixth decent) heavyweight Greenberg has fought in seven long years and, as sure as night following day, he gets exposed like a pervert in a raincoat. As a fellow former SecondsOut writer - who also had to deal with Robert Waterman's BS about 'first billion dollar heavyweight' - texted me last night "Four years too late to put him in with someone who could cup a fist".

Roman had talent, he handled Michael Sprott etc in sparring when he was a teenager. But that was eight long years ago. That early rep as a young heavyweight who could do something, coupled by the fact he's a Jew (and rich businessmen from Jewish communities like to support their own) enabled him to earn a nice living for the last 8 years but the ride is over. He never got in shape, never tried to improve and from what I can tell, never really listened to anyone or anything that didn't sound like full-on cheerleading.

That SecondsOut chose to write up this calamity in less than 300 words after becoming exact cheerleaders for Greenberg says all you need to know about the quality of that site nowadays.
