    DLH was shocked into retirement. He got old overnight and ended his career on a horrible note.

    Agree with the DLH call, but you're a bit over the top there. Give the old guy a break - that's what happens with inactive, aging fighters that try to drop weight: they get an ass kicking.

    And when he's embarassed, it's in front of ALOT of people.

    A lot of people jumped out of the Bandwagon in a way. Im still a huge Cotto fan and despite the loss i still think Cotto gives Floyd a tougher time than Margo due to their styles. Kind of like A beats B but loses to C.

    Agreed. I'm still on that bandwagon BTW, just don't like the matchup with Margo.

    I think Pavlik getting his ass handed to him was the worst. Cotto put up a good fight, DLH was semi-retired, Pavlik was approaching his prime and Hopkins was supposed to be a good name on his resume.

    I voted De La Hoya, but what about the results of this Evander fight and how it went down.

    Lacy to Calzaghe
    Juan Diaz to Campbell (all talks about him just vanished like smoke)

    Certainly, but I think he was also rushed because of that eye problem as well.

    Diaz is still a major player.

    Davey Moore loss to Duran is another.

    Jerry Quarry also smoked a few "up and comers" (Mack Foster, Ron Lyle, Shavers, etc.) in his carrer too.
