    My number one: rock Newman smashing his phone against a golota team member while a riot ensues (or was it the fabmans head? ) Can't remember correctly.

    2) that thug something "butler" sucker punching his opponent after the decision that would seem like a non gloved left hook from Tito Trinidad (this dude was bad, not even gonna talk about his crimes smh in disbelief)

    3) it was a fight on Friday night fights, the fighter put his hand up to touch gloves while his opponent Kayode him, you gotta protect yourself at all times.

    4) just for humour: at a heavyweight press conference James toney talked a bunch of smack while me thinks he was wearing a sombrero, john Ruiz politely whispered "that's why you don't do drugs, you see?" Said the quiet man who was not even a Mexican, rendering the Mexican hat as nothing except for a poor attempt to get under his skin, which you gotta have (thick skin) in the fight game. I guess out of the ring counts too, my bad for #4.

    If Duran thumbed Moore on purpose, which he may have done, then that probably shades my otherwise #1 choice which is Golota trying to crack Bowe's nuts open like they were pinatas containing hundred dollar bills.

    Lest we forget, the Golota three punch flurry to the nuts is the #1 finishing combo in boxing :D

    Edit: these quips are from the youtube comments section

    * After this fight Riddick Bowe was simply known as Rid Bowe...
    * Bowe can tell his adopted grandchildren about this ROFL
    * andre ward fans see this as "body work"
    * When guys need a vasectomy and they don’t have insurance, they call Andrew Golota.

    Jesus, that description made my eyes water.

    I’ve said it before. Some guys have glass chins but I swear, I’ve got glass nuts.

    It doesn’t take much of knock down there to see me on the ground, moaning in the foetal. position. The proverbial Achilles’ Nuts.

    Keep that under your hats though, I don’t want anyone to know my one and only weakness. :confused:

    Remember this one? I can’t believe it was back in 1989.

    Boxer Tony Wilson copping a pummelling so his mum decides to get in there and start whacking Tony’s opponent over the head with her shoe.

    Just as well she wasn’t wearing stilettos - the heel on one those would’ve definitely smarted!

    Mike Tyson biting off a chunk of Evander’s ear and then going back for seconds.

    Donald Curry vs Tony Montgomery

    Montgomery using his head like a billy goat, ramming the top of his head into Curry's mouth repeatedly.

    Not to mention Curry's 'after-the-fight-right-hand' which I felt was deserved.

    Tied with this was the fight in which Holyfield throws a 1-2 combo of a headbutt followed by a nutshot.

    Floyd Mayweaher v Victor Ortiz - Ortiz fires in a torpedo-like head butt and Mayweather follows that with a hit-on-the-break, cheap shot KO.

    How about this one from Royce Sio. He landed a couple of bombs while Haumono was flat on his back. Happens at 2:12 of the video...
