    Mosley vs Margarito
    Hopkins vs Pavlik (or any Hopkins fight post for that matter)

    These two come to mind right away for me.

    Morales definitely proved he could still be a warrior against Maidana

    That wasn't an isolated throwback performance, though, it was smack in the middle of his comeback.

    He fought exactly the same as in his previous & next couple of fights.

    Holyfield arguably did it a few times. Despite the headbutt he put on his best performance in a while vs Rahman

    I agree foreman looked the same in his previous fight It was just him winning the title at 45 which was seen as the great thing.

    Sugar Shane vs Margo is a great recent example.

    Toney vs Jirov?
