Ah, got it! Also, not directed to you, Seamus, but in general: A win is the more "impressive" the better the opponent. That's what I was driving at when I joked that Cleveland Williams circa the Ali fight referenced was a "cadaver." So a "surgical" performance - which I assume means a performance that displays technical virtuosity - is most impressive when it is against another superlative technician. In this context, I would point to Chan-hee Park's win over Miguel Canto as an example. Canto is universally considered the greatest technician at the flyweight; and though a bit past his prime, Canto had an economical style that aged well. Against this, Park arguably scored a shutout. That is a "most impressive surgical performance."
Even except that being the second quip of that joke, it's a bit overstated. Williams was past it, but that "corpse" would still beat one of Frazier's so called contenders many years later. But back to the topic - I don't think Benitez-Duran has been mentioned yet. Or Whitaker-Chavez.
No one done a Randall pun yet! As Chavez/Rosario and McCallum/Watson have been mentioned I throw in Curry/Jones
Rigo was perfect against Teon. But the Tyson vs Douglas is a good ****ogy with the suprise knockdown just making the beating worse for the loser. Qawi was a butcher at LHW would love to have seen him and Toney go at it.
