    What were some fights where a master boxer got outboxed by his opponent?

    Not really. Would you not classify Hopkins as a master boxer?

    if he gets outboxed then he got outboxed by a superior master boxer

    Are you referring to the one where Leonard got dropped twice and it was ruled a draw?

    Hopkins vs Taylor I and II does not follow that logic AT ALL even if you believe that Taylor did outbox Hopkins (which he didn't for the most part).

    Kalambay-McCallum 2 McCallum looked overtrained and lethargic in the first fight. This fight was the two at their best.

    Toney-Nunn; I had Toney winning 7 rounds to three coming into the 11th round. Amazing display of offensive boxing as well as slipping punches in the pocket with a southpaw. This fight is one of many that prove that the "Philly" shell can be used against opposite stance fighters. It just has to be adjusted so that you block the cross punch while leaning away, kind of how Mayweather blocks the left hook. He shifts away from it while letting it land on his arm.

    Leonard-Benitez; Leonard outjabbed and eventually stopped Benitez
