    What fights were there where a fighter lost a fight and then won the rematch brutally? Could be an early knockdown or a sustained beatdown.

    These come to mind:

    Paul Williams KO1 Carlos Quintana
    Sergio Martinez KO2 Paul Williams
    Lennox Lewis KO4 Hasim Rahman

    Jones Griffin II is the best I can think of. Kendel Holt vs Ricardo Torres is another one.

    Good one.

    Floyd Patterson vs Ingemar Johansson II had a brutal finish too. Feet twitching, unconscious, the lot.

    Joe Louis vs Max Schmeling II.

    Lewis-Rahman rematch is the first one i thought of.
    holyfield-Moorer rematch was pretty brutal too. I lost count on how many time moorer went down in that fight.

    Yeah everybody already beat me to it.. I was going to say RJJ vs Griffin.. RJJ took him out.. PLUS the commentators even made a comment like, "Jones exacts his revenge brutally".. or somethine along those lines.
