    What are some fights where some intentional fouls gave someone a real advantage, to win a fight?
    Intentional low blows, to slow down their opponent when they were pulling ahead
    A headbutt/elbow that cut someone?
    A rabbit punch KO?
    hitting someone when they were already down, just to be sure?

    Any fight where being dirty paid off for the win, pretty much. The more blatant the better! :hey

    I like Duran, and I think he's a better fighter than Buchanan, but.. Duran-Buchanan.

    Gatti's low blows on Rodriguez and Trinidad's on Vargas helped them.

    Hatton's low blow on Tszyu took the wind out of Kostya's sails.

    I'm a huge Cotto fan but his fight with Zab is a reasonable example of this. I definitely wouldn't call Junito a 'dirty fighter' though...

    Rodent Mayol took the belt from Edgar Sosa with this. Disgraceful.

    The hell it didn't, Holyfield was using his head as a third arm that night
