Fighters who shockingly fell from grace in double quick time:

:rofl yeah i was waiting for this when i saw the thread title. there are some posters that get fired up at the blind hate for pav, i just kind of laugh. it pathetic really. the reigning mw king...haha lets wait for a mw to dethrone him before he's added into this thread. (mind you no mw has ever heard the final bell against him)

 

Audley Harrison - from Olympic gold medalist and the so-called "future" of the Heavyweight division to a chump who is one of the most disliked sportsman in the UK!

 

Two Roy Jones victims:

James Toney, who deserves major props for coming back and climbing his way to the top.
Montell Griffin.

 

Shane Mosley from 2002-2004.

Erik Morales

 

No doubt in my mind , in recent years the most shocking fall from grace in the shortest time was Lacy, whatever is said about him now he was, by americans at least the most hpyed widely regarded fighter before his bout with Calzage.
After the fight he was destroyed, went from hero to zero in the space of 36 mins, 48 mins if you count the min between rounds.

 

he did actually and won the IBO title if i remeber correctly but he wasnt the same after he got his ass whooped by barrera

 

Not if he keeps getting injured or keeps fighting chumps:think

 

Dominick Guinn. Sad in that he had a good punch and an iron chin.

 

lacy

 

Michael Spinks - Took his first loss to prime Tyson in one of the biggest fights in the history of the sport in the first round and just retired right after.

 

I was at the Darchinyan-Mijares fight not even a year ago. I was picking Darchinyan, even though he was a fairly big underdog. It was an exciting fight out there in the Home Depot Center in Carson, where it rained like crazy off and on. SO Mijares now has moved to bantamweight and lost a split decision, he has a rematch coming up, I will wait and see how he does before passing judgement and saying he has totally fallen off.

 

Tell me about it, the wheels fell completely off that bus....

 

i know and weve heard all that...but the fact that you used "if" in your post sorta reinforces the point that he aint there yet and to put him there when he is still the mw king, hasnt had a mw see the final bell against him and where his only loss was to the best lhw in the world when he had some documented disadvantages (whether you choose to believe them or not) is unwarranted.

 

Yeah, being undefeated during his whole career made him think he was invulnarable, but after a good winningstreak losing KO in the first round is very shocking. Not only he knew he can lose but he can lose royaly:think

 

True, but I hope the showing against Rubio proves nothing more than a tune up for future fights. It took a little too long(er than usual) for him to put him away and since then... No but you're right, let's see a couple of more fights first:good
