    When was the last time a true elite fighter, a top10 P4Per in his PRIME got his ass handed to him in little more than a single round?

    Not quite what you asked, but Lennox Lewis getting sparked twice reminds me of what happened to Williams.

    I am afraid he was: http://www.ringtv.com/ratings/

    BTW, the last time was Tarver v. Jones 2, that was a way bigger upset than what happened yesterday, bigger than Rahman vs. Lewis I.

    Three things:
    1. there were no p4p rankings at the time and even if, I doubt Schmeling would have been on it.
    2. Schmeling was already considered past prime in the first fight.
    3. "last time"
