Question: Considered to be not quite up to the caliber of a "contender" or "gatekeeper", what was Azem Maksutaj considered to be after 2001?
Context: The blunderbuss is a muzzle-loading firearm with a short, large caliber barrel, which is flared at the muzzle and frequently throughout the entire bore, and used with shot and other projectiles of relevant quantity and/or caliber.  The blunderbuss could be considered to be an early form of shotgun, which was often adapted to military and defensive use.  It was effective at short ranges, but lacked accuracy for targets at long range.  A blunderbuss in handgun form was called a dragon, and it is from this that the term "dragoon" evolved. In boxing, kickboxing and mixed martial arts, a journeyman is a fighter who has adequate skill but is not of the caliber of a "contender" or "gatekeeper".  Outside of combat sports, a "journeyman" is a trader or craftsman who has completed an apprenticeship, but is not at the level of a master craftsman.  Hence, when applied to sports, a "journeyman" implies a fighter who is no longer a novice, and has the sufficient degree of skill that may be expected from a professional, but who does not have the mastery possessed by the title contenders. Thomas Principe, also known as the ".22 Caliber Killer", was an Italian-American Gambino crime family street soldier and close friend of John Gotti from New York City Alleged to have been part of a special hit squad that would order executions with silencer-equipped .22 caliber pistols, earning them the title in the newspapers as "the .22 Caliber hitters".  alleged members considered to make up the team of executioners were thought by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to be Vincent Gigante, John DiGilio, Salvatore Briguglio and Tommy.  The team of "hitters" were suspected of being responsible for at least twenty gangland executions since 1976, including six FBI informants and potential witnesses.  The most publicized murder, claimed to have been the team's 21st victim was former Manhattan assistant District Attorney Gino Gallina.  Gallina had become a lawyer, defending major crime figures including East Coast Genovese crime family members.  He was gunned down in gangland style on a Greenwich Village street.  Seven bullets riddled Gallina and he died ninety minutes later.  At the time, Gallina was a key witness before a Newark, New Jersey grand jury, testifying, among other things, on Mafia executions performed by the suspected ".22 Caliber Hitters".  He was claimed a victim of the team of executioners even though the bullets that killed him were from a .38-caliber handgun.  Federal officials blamed his slaying on a leak from the grand jury. In boxing, kickboxing and mixed martial arts, a gatekeeper is a skillful and well-regarded fighter, but one who does not have the popularity or brilliance of a title contender.  They are considered to be a cut above most journeymen.  A gatekeeper will often have an impressive record in terms of wins versus losses but will have a difficult time getting people behind them and especially obtaining promotion.  An example from boxing is Lightweight Cincinnati fighter Adrien Broner, known for having tough matches with some of boxing's top contenders, yet failing to obtain his full potential as an elite fighter despite his best efforts. Asteroid hyalosis is a degenerative condition of the eye involving small white opacities in the vitreous humor.  It is known to occur in humans, dogs, cats and chinchillas. Clinically, these opacities are quite refractile, giving the appearance of stars (or asteroids) shining in the night sky—except that ocular asteroids are often quite mobile.  Ocular asteroids must be distinguished from the more common typical vitreous floaters, which are usually fibrillar or cellular condensates.  The cause of asteroid hyalosis is unknown, but it has been associated with diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and, in certain animals, tumors of the ciliary body.  In dogs, asteroid hyalosis is considered to be an age related change.  The asteroid bodies are made up of hydroxylapatite, which in turn consists of calcium and phosphates or phospholipids.  While asteroid hyalosis does not usually severely affect vision, the floating opacities can be quite annoying, and may interfere significantly with visualization and testing of the retina.  While treatment of asteroid hyalosis is usually unnecessary, vitrectomy may occasionally be indicated, for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The principle of maximum caliber (MaxCal) or maximum path entropy principle suggested by E. T. Jaynes, can be considered as a generalization of the principle of maximum entropy, postulates that the most unbiased probability distribution of paths is the one that maximizes their Shannon entropy.  This entropy of paths is sometimes called the "caliber" of the system, and is given by the path integral The 7"/44 caliber gun Mark 1 (spoken "seven-inch-forty-four--caliber") and 7"/45 caliber gun Mark 2 (spoken "seven-inch-forty-five--caliber") were used for the secondary batteries of the United States Navy's last generation of pre-dreadnought battleships, the "Connecticut"-class and "Mississippi"-class .  The 7 in caliber was considered, at the time, to be the largest caliber weapon sutiable as a rapid-fire secondary gun because its shells were the heaviest that one man could handle alone. Azem Maksutaj (born July 8, 1975) is an Albanian-Swiss former kickboxer who competed in the lightweight, welterweight, middleweight, super middleweight, light heavyweight, cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions.  He originates from Kosovo but relocated to Switzerland at an early age where he began training in Muay Thai at fifteen.  After capturing the Swiss national title at lightweight during his first year of competition in 1992, he then went on to win European and world honours 1994 while fighting around the 77 kg super middleweight mark.  The late 1990s saw Maksutaj move between light heavyweight and cruiserweight, taking five world titles in those divisions, before eventually making the jump to heavyweight in 2001 where he spent the remainder of his career, acting as a journeyman in the K-1 promotion while also winning another four world titles. The .338 Winchester Magnum is a .338 in caliber, belted, rimless, bottlenecked cartridge introduced in 1958 by Winchester Repeating Arms.  It is based on the blown-out, shortened .375 H&H Magnum.  The .338 in is the caliber at which medium-bore cartridges are considered to begin.  The .338 Winchester Magnum is the first choice among professional brown bear (specifically grizzly bear) guides in Alaska to back up clients where a powerful stopping caliber is required on charging bears.  It is also the most popular medium-bore cartridge in North America and has the most widely available choice in rifles among medium bore rifles.  The action length is the same as a 30-06 and most major rifle manufacturers in the United States chamber rifles for the cartridge including the semi-automatic Browning BAR Mk II Safari making it a very powerful combination against charging dangerous game.  The cartridge was intended for larger North American big-game species and has found use as for the hunting of thin-skinned African plains-game species. The Ghana News Agency (GNA) is the official news agency of the country of Ghana.  It was founded in 1957 by Kwame Nkrumah as part of a "network of coercive and partisan institutions," in a concerted effort to present a more favorable view of the country to the outside world and to control the flow of information nationally. " The New York Times" reported in 1964 that most of the agency's news came from Reuters (it had "only a few correspondents abroad"); the agency functioned as a gatekeeper in that it disseminated international news to the Ghanaian press, and deleted any international news critical of the Ghanaian leadership immediately, thus preventing such news from reaching the country's newspapers and radio stations.  Until the rise of the Pan African News Agency, the GNA was considered one of the most efficient news agencies in Africa, spreading what Nkrumah called the "clear ideology of the African Revolution" and contributing to "African and Ghanaian emancipation."
