    Fights that were not close , with no reasonable argument against the judges' verdict (but that still lasted the distance) are harder to find than debated/close fights.

    First example which came to my mind : Roy Jones vs. Reggie Johnson

    Not one of the best examples.
    Lewis did fought his usual cowardly fight and trembled to his corner after the first or second round I think . Not one of the clearest dominations ever not that it can be regarded as a good example of a robbery either.

    Hell, yes it is, the best you can Tua give are 1-2 mercy rounds. That was utter domination. But then Tua was an overrated fringe-contender anyway. Didn´t belong into the same ring as Lennox.

    I watched all of these except from Pacquiao-Margachito (yet) and Holmes-Cobb (maybe yet too) and Mayweather-Mosley was not such a clear embarrassing example of domination.
    I disagree with you about Whitaker-Ramirez #2 , if Whitaker won it then it is merely by a small margin. Ramirez was competitive .

    Fringe contender who was never stopped as a pro and stopped past and future champions that were not far from their prime , and dangerous contenders . Not his fault he got only 1 chance in which he didn't do so bad , considering he was not getting close to getting stopped.

    And I mean relatively meaningful / notable fights of course.

    He wouldn't have lasted a round with two-ton tony tua though, who fought when men were men and fesces were fesces

    Have you never read about this fight? It's on stone tablets everywhere, pick one up sometime otherwise you're not a real fan of boxing.
