    Yeah :good

    And his shape was terrible as well. Just a **** on being the Undisputed HW Champ and all the work he had done against Tyson.

    I'll add De La Hoya.

    He went from been the cash cow of boxing to been ridiculed and retired in the fight with Pacquiao. Prior to that, every great fighter was calling out his name from Margarito, to Cotto, to Hatton, etc. It was a quick change in the Golden Boy's fate...

    The first name that popped to my mind when I saw this thread was Margarito but I saw someone already mentioned him. Valero was another fighter who quickly went from been a great potential match up for Paquiao, to a murderer, to deceased in a span of two days....that to me has to be the biggest turnaround in a fighters career.

    Roy Jones.

    From Superman to being repeatedly brutally ko'd by stiffs providing a highlight reel of shattered glass.

    On a serious not, what about Mosley?

    After the Marg fight he was rated so highly people saying PBF and Pac were ducking him etc etc, he barely won a round against either and ended his career on a sour note.
     
  12. Not Tyson. He still grabbed 2 belts after prison and killed Golota and Nielsen.

    Trinidad came to mind for me. The loss to Hopkins seemed to ruin him mentally, he was never the same after that.
