    It's got to be Billy Joe Saunders getting stopped on his stool against Canelo after telling Dubois 'you should get carried out of the ring brother' and 'your eye goes so you want to get out' when they both quit with the same injury. Boxing karma at it's best.

    Eubank Jr splattered and face broke by Liam Smith after over a decade of cherry picking old/underweight opponents whilst having smoke blown up his arse.

    Hopkins and Joshua beaten numerous times by members of the ‘white boy inferior race’

    Malignaggi receiving a boxing lesson and pulled out having taunted and called out Hatton for years. Love Paullie though.


    Scott Cardle folded by Ricky Burns having robbed Sean Dodd twice.

    Will be plenty more, what about that skinny little Asian walking to the ring very cockily, to the extreme and then being absolutely flattened in the first round.

    All of the above. So many to mention :
    Joe Smith knocking out Hopkins
    Marquez taking his own referee and judges to the 4th Pacquio fight.
    Bivol outclassing his highness, King Saul!
    Decades earlier, Ingo flattening the Billy goat, Dick Richardson.
    Patterson doing the same to “0ur ‘enry”

    but McCellan is probably a lot of people's choice.

    I believe the cocky dance and the KO at the hands of Ashley Sexton were actually from two different fights apparently - the videos were just spliced together. Still funny though.

    Uzzy Ahmed seems a sound lad tbf

    I enjoyed seeing Joe Smith Jr knock out Bernard Hopkins through the ropes. Hopkins always came across as a *****, it was a fitting way to end his career.

    Degale losing to Groves was a classic for me after all the trash talking

    Not so much Karma but this post reminded me of the fight I will post below. Gets hit with a big shot, beats chest to say I’m ok then bang. One of my favorite KOs ever.

    Anyone with a DAZN subscription who bought the Fatal Fury PPV event from Time Square last night got a massive dose of karma.

    Even the fighters are fleecing Turki at this stage with those shocking performances.

    If Skull achieves the miraculous upset tonight, then even the Saudis should seriously contemplate cutting their losses, as they're just getting rinsed.

    Without a doubt it's Maidana's beating of Broner for me.

    I appreciate the sweet science as much as the next man but Haney’s performance was a disgrace. Then him and his idiot dad were lauding it over Garcia.

    I bought the PPV last night and was very disappointed.

    Poor fights and bad guests in the studio. It didn't work and let's hope this is the last time we see a fight / production in this setting.

    I wonder if Haney was thinking about all the millions that went up in smoke ?
