Got this qustion from le reddit boxing

/sp/ boxing fans

Who's a current fighter that you had high expectations for that hasn't met that? They could suck, just be in a hiatus of sort or something.

I gotta go with Lucas Matthysse. This guy should be a huge face for Latin America but probably won't be.
>>
Adrien Broner. I thought he was going to go far, even after his loss against Maidana, but he just turned out to be a sub par fighter.
>>
Matthysse is already done.

Like >>77632939 Broner is the quintessential "what if" of this generation. That Maidana took a lot of wind out of his sails.
>>
>>77632794
Matthysse is a a strange situation. He is a very good fighter, entertaining, who's not good enough to win a world title in a divion stacked with talent. If he was mexican he would be huge, but in Argentina they dont care about boxing.

Besides >>77632939 I'm gonna say Gamboa. So much wasted talent,
>>
>>77633342
yeah this, matthysse is too good for peterson tier fighters but no good anoth for the top guys, it's a shame, I like him

a provodnikov version with defence would have been a good fighter as well
>>
I would have to say demetrius andrade. Would have thought he'd have fought people of more note by now.

Also worth mentioning is the tradgedy of Prichard Colon. I thought that guy was going to be pretty good. The ref, ring doctor and opponent definitely were not completely in the right in that fight.

Also Andre Berto was someone I really thought had the goods in 2007. Never did much though.

I personally never thought Broner was that good. Surprised when he lost to maidana, but always suspected Shawn porter tier fighters would beat him.
>>
Mat Korobov

one of the most decorated amateurs of all time, looked to be a lock for a world title but fell for Andy Lee's meme right hand and hasn't been heard from since
>>

>unironically being a redditor
>unironically being new
Google ask this question in /box/. You'll fit in well with the rest of those faggots
>>
>>77633819

Fuck. I forgot about Prichard for a second.

He was one of my favorite up and coming boxers and I seriously felt he was in line to be a Puerto Rican Oscar De La Hoya of sorts with his good looks and high quality work rate. Damn shame what happened to him.
>>
>>77632794
Tyson Fury, i really hoped he would return.
Now casual will remember Anthony Joshua as the one who ended Klitschko reigns, and Fury as a shit fighter.
>>
Dmitry Pirog


RIP in pieces
>>
>>77632794
I loved watching the Argentinians fight, Matthysse along with Maidana and Martinez. Then they all fucking disappeared.
>>
>>77642402
Can't blame him for retiring after hurting his back.
