There have been times in boxing history when a fighter does something really dumb that leads to their downfall or makes them look really stupid. For example the RJJ v Toney fight in 94, tho it didnt lead to him losing the fight, when jones stuck his chin out goading Toney to hit him, and then Toney did the same ,m except Jones did whack him one which lead to the only knock down of the fight, kinda made Toneyt look really dumb doing that and getting caught. My personal favourite is a UK boxer called Kirkland Lang (WW) when miles ahead on the score cards (pretty much every round boxed so far m I think 6 out of 10) , decided to goad his desperate opponent by sticking his chin out and actually signalling for hsi oppenet to hit im, so he did and knocked him spark out (think it was a journeyman called Buck Smith) How many others can yu guys recall?
Nate Campbell did something like that against someone whos name escapes me. Up on the cards, then got cocky, dropped his hands and stood there. The guy hit him with a hook and knocked him out.
Mayorga thinking that giving Tito a free shot was the same as giving forrest a free shot. Tito damn near took his head off. Winky giving Shane a free shot. Shane being the smart guy that he is whacked him to the body. It didn't cost winky the fight but he was visibly hurt from the shot. Oquendo showboating when he was way ahead and then getting KO'd by Tua.
Nate Campbell beating Robbey Peden then puting his hands down and daring Peden to hit him and Peden KO's him.
when mayorga made vernon forrest look like a ***** by allowing him to hit him like three times. even tho it didnt work against tito b/c tito is a champ, mayorga punking out forrest was one of the all time funniest boxing moments
