    I don't know about the 99.8%, but Roy Jones-Richard Hall was disgusting.

    ODLH/Gatti, for that matter...Gomez/Gatti would work too. Gotta hope Arturo has a decent middle and old age.

    Of more recent vintage, I can't think of too many guys who would have lasted as long as Penalosa did against Juan Manuel Lopez.

    Carlos Baldomir vs Vernon Forrest was pretty impressive, too

    Im guessing... the only one that was filmed aka the 6th & last fight aka the only one that ended by stoppage aka the only one that was one sided aka `you never got me down Ray`

    Even though he "won", Would Golota vs Bowe II count?

    Absolutely.

    One of the most brutal Heavyweight fights of recent times. He didn't only take ridiculous legal punishment, but the combination's he took to the groin were disgusting. Ouch. Bowe was a warrior, man.

    The beating Greg Haugen took when he served as the sacrificial gringo offender in Mexico City against Julio Cesar Chavez was totally
    unnecessary.

    John Mugabi took a pounding from Hagler before finally giving in in the later rounds. Razor Ruddock took a battering from Tyson also.
