    Now we all know the triangle theory isn't always true, anyone have any good examples?

    I'll start the balls rolling (before Cotto got revenge)

    Cotto > Mosley > Margarito > Cotto

    I always thought the handwrap revelations threw a big spanner into the works of the triangle theory concerning Cotto as he probably would have won.

    Frazier beats Ali

    Foreman Beats Frazier

    Ali beats Foreman

    (ken norton in place of Frazier also works)

    Apart from the obvious fact that there's four fighters,this is a perfect example for blowing the dreaded triangle theory to ****.
    Styles will always make fights.
