    Penalosa versus Juan Ma Lopez.

    Penalosa showed why he had a rock hard chin. The fight was only stopped when Roach threw the towel in.

    yeah, there are many...

    as for morales-diaz, personally i scored it for morales ...i've never been too high on Chicago's own David Diaz despite showing a shitload of heart in his fights, which apparently may have been enough to get the hometown decision against morales.

    Hagler Vs. Leonard.
    (IMO, Marvin should have won)

    Marvin was past his best, Not quite "Shot" but close to it.

    Jones/Lacy
    Vargas/Mosley 1(Mosley had problems with a shot Vargas and this was in 06! The shot verdict is out on Mosley now imo)
    Lewis/Vitali(Lennox wasn't shot but was well past it)
    Holyfield/Valuev
    Wright/Williams(I dunno if Wright was shot but he was clearly past his best)

    How was Morales versus Pacquaio 3 a brave last stand? He sat on his ass like a bum.

    Morales vs PAC 2.... He just had no more stamina... he wanted to do things his body could no longer do...
