Robinson vs. Rocky Graziano is one of my favorites!! Rocky knocks Ray down, and Ray gets back up and knocks Rocky out silly sending his mouthpiece flying.
Hopkins - Trinidad Winky - Mosley 1 De La Hoya - Vargas Mosley - Margarito Jones Jr - Toney Mayweather Jr - Corrales
For me, Pac's greatest performance was his loss to Erik Morales. With all the obstacles he had, namely that Morales had his number, the step up in weight division, the gloves issue, the blood drawn days before the fight which he says drained his strength, the headbutt cut over his eye which impaired his vision, Pac left it all on the line and gave it his all in typical Pac fashion. He clearly lost the fight to a better Erik Morales. He cried because he felt he let his fans and nation down. He didn't. His fans who watched the fight knew he gave it all. They were proud.
Oscar De La Hoya Vs. Genaro Hernandez Vs. Fernando Vargas Vs. Rafael Ruelas Vs. Ike Quartey Vs. Felix Trinidad (L) Vs. Miguel Ángel González Vs. Shane Mosley II (L) Vs. Julio Cesar Chavez I (The night He became PPV king) The first 3 I listed hold a special spot in my Fav De La Hoya fight's. Those fights represented Oscar's acceptance by the people as he took Socal over. By beating his rivals.
I could easily name other great performances by Pac in which he won. But what's the use of doing that if everyone on this site just writes it off with the million excuses to why he won? Great performances don't always end in triumph. It was my favorite peformance based on the circumstances.
Just seemed like you've used this thread as an opportunity to make excuses for the loss. In bad taste, as I said.
