Giant Slaying

Give me some examples of much smaller men beating, or even better destroying larger fighters.

It's irrelevent whether its a club fight from the 80's or turn of the 19th century Maher/Choynski bouts.

Something about the dynamic of david vs goliath just interests me.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Videos are even better. I'm hoping this turns into a decent thread akin to my Stealing O's thread, with examples of much larger men being blasted out to smaller fighters completely outclassing larger ones.

Here's a good example from two years ago, an entertaining one round scrap, with a 45 pound weight difference between the two fights.

Good stuff Jorodz, thanks.

 

Max Baer vs Primo Carnera. There was an surprising 50 plus pound difference between the two.

Joe Louis beat up several really big guys...with Louis weighing about 200 lbs.

Dempsey breaking up Willard...also.

Ali was a giant slayer even if the giants he beat weren't technically that much bigger. Both Liston and Foreman at the time Ali dethroned them were considered by a great many to be the most destructive forces ever to box and nigh well invincible. Ali overcame massive odds on both occasions.

 

Good stuff Suzie.
