Greatest back 2 back victories ?

Pac beating Hatton and then Cotto beats even that for me, seeing the size difference and how dominant both wins were. A former lineal FW champion beating the crap out of a, prime, future lineal MW champion is just mind blowing.

 

Duran beating Cuevas & Davey Moore

 

Some goods ones are:

McLarnin's wins over Canzoneri and Ambers
Conn's wins over Yarosz and Corbett III
Moore's wins over Bivins and Johnson

 

Carlos Ortiz vs. Sugar Ramos and Ismael Laguna

 

Probably these two the more I think about it. Just a former lineal FW champion beating a current lineal LW champion has never happened as far as I know, and in that manner as well. Then following that up with blowing away one of the top WWs, who would go on to hold a title at JMW and then become lineal at MW... Has for sure never happened before, even if you take away the back to back requirement, and I don't expect it to during my life time. It's a singular feat.

 

Two straight over Fury is better.

 

Marco Antonio Barerra beat both Erik Morales and Johnny Tapia back to back.

 

Maybe. But Fury showed up so overweight for the rematch, its hard for me to rate that too highly.

 

They weren't back to back.

 

Lewis bouncing back to flatten Rachmn and then destroying Tyson

 

Jeffries beating Fitz and then Sharkey

 

Jimmy McLarnin beating Ambers and Canzoneri in his last 2 fights.

 

Liston v Patterson 1 and 2

 

Monzon v Valdez back 2 back

 

Another superb thread, Lads! This is a great night for threads
