    Can't believe nobody has said Meldrick Taylor vs JCC 1 yet.

    Mickey bey jr vs John Molina

    Bey was absolutely toying with Molina and won every round comfortably. Then came last round, Bey tried to close the show with style and hurt Molina to the body and head. The question was if Molina can make it to the last bell and then out of nowhere he lands one left hook and it took everything out of Bey. Molina follows his attack and stops Bey in the last round after losing every single round.

    I actually thought it was pretty competitive. Jackson? Yeah.. incredible comeback, But Lee was always in this one.

    Yes, that's a fair comment. It was still competitive.

    However, most of the other examples in the thread are not perfect either, e.g. most are older than the OP requested (10-15 yrs), or were competitive (e.g Wilder vs Szpilka, Korobov vs Lee), or didn't succeed (JCC Jr vs Martinez),

    Toney-Nunn and Chavez-Taylor 1 were dramatic but gradual comeback were made.

    Toney had turned things in favor 2-3 rounds earlier and was getting to Nunn with good shots. Definitely more competitive than the hometown judges had it for Nunn.

    Taylor won 7 of the first 8 rounds versus Chavez on my card, and Chavez turned things in his favor from the 9th round on. Chavez was landing hard shots throughout, but being outworked by Taylor's crazy workrate and speed. The 10th was a classic round with two way action.

    I disagree about the Thai hooker, but canelo did get slapped around.
