    Paul Briggs vs Tomas Adamek I and II. Both all out wars for 12 rounds! And very unknown on these boards. THing Adamek was in hospital for three days after the first. Epic, epic contests.

    I struggle to come up with something better than that choice.

    Perhaps this thread should be called "Best losing efforts by a fighter(other than Smokin Joe in Manilla)".
