    For me, it would be Hattons devastating loss to Pacquiao!! SMH. Who would it be for you and why?

    Israel Vázquez's fourth fight with Rafael Márquez.

    Still a trilogy to me, damn it.

    Jose Napoles against Carlos Monzon. That was a fight that he really shouldn't have taken and he paid for it dearly.

    Also Chocolatito against SSR 2. Really sucked to see Chocolatito not only lose but knocked out bad.

    Haye v Klit was another. I really liked Haye then but when he started talking about his toe I felt more ashamed than when my son told me he liked playing netball.

    It was the worst, Hatton had a reputation for being rugged and tenacious, then a former 112 pounder KO'S him in that fashion, at his favorite weight? If Hatton would have responded correctly he could have softened the blow a little by bouncing back with some wins, but instead he goes on a self destructive drug and alcohol binge.

    Not my favorite boxer, but erasing the loss would change boxing history.
    If Lennox Lewis were to erase his defeat from Oliver McCall, there would be no doubt as to who is the best (most successful) heavyweight of the 90s.

    If a boxer does enough after the horrible loss it seems to water it down quite a bit, is i have noticed. Examples, Cotto after his losses to Margarito and Pacquiao, Tyson, after the Douglas loss, Duran, after his loss to Hearns. Just to name a few.
