boxer's who turn pro with no amateur fight's.
Anthony Mundine. No amatuer career and fought for the world title in his 11th pro fight. Almost went the distance and was a close fight until the stoppage (which for some reason people still ridicule). Haseem Rahman apparently had no or a very limited amatuer career, before going on to become the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

I thought he had one or two amateur fights. When he was young.

S.T Gordon, who beat Trevor Berbick back in 1983, and won the WBC cruiserweight title by KOing Carlos DeLeon the same year I think.

I read his auto biography which suggested otherwise. It basically said he had quite a few amatuer fights, started poorly and had to learn a lot of things before getting good.

Cause it was against Sven Ottke. My 11 year old brother can go 12 with Otkke.but knocked out...actually brain wiped off the face of the earth style ko.
form a complete non-puncher there has not been a ko instead of a guy running out of steam or getting a cut...he has never ever knocked somone out.........thats why we ridicule it

It basically said he had quite a few amatuer fights, started poorly and had to learn a lot of things before getting good.i thought he was unbeaten at amatuer and pro until ali beat him thats why it was so devastating...we had a thread when we had the old files stating this! anyone can back me up
