    Not the cleanest example, but

    Hearns beat Leonard (the "draw" from II) - Leonard beat Hagler - Hagler beat Hearns

    A better one is

    Hearns beat Duran - Duran beat Leonard - Leonard beat Hearns

    Age or the wrong styles can break A-B-C logic in boxing.

    This is not a very good example.

    Ezzard Charles beat a retired Joe Louis coming back after over 2 years away from the ring.

    By all accounts Walcott actually beat Louis in their first fight. Even Louis thought so.

    Charles had already beaten Walcott twice before Walcott managed to return the favor.

    I think it's safe to say ABC logic was broken from the start;)
