James Green was a pressure in-fighter who enjoyed success early in his career with wins over Scypion, Singletary and Teddy Mann. He then suffered setbacks against David Braxton, Mugabi and Frank “the Animal” Fletcher. He won a couple of fights against some softer competition, but followed them with losses against an undefeated Donald Curry, Watts and finally a loss against Michael Olajide that sent him into retirement. After a nine-year hiatus he came back as a super middleweight with little success. He finally hung his gloves up in 1996.
