    David Reid comes to mind. He was happy to be in the fight with Trinidad, but didn't know how to step it up when he had to. When trinidad stepped it up, he couldn't compete and suffered a terrible loss and was never the same.

    Liston had already lost once, but he was considered unbeatable before he fought Clay. After the first Clay fight, he was never the same

    Hector Camacho, after he fought Edwin Rosario.......its not a loss, although it could EASILY have been, given that some people still feel Rosario deserved the victory.....its been discussed numerous times on here that Camacho was never the same after that fight.

    mike tyson,

    after he lost to buster douglas he became more and more human.

    roy jones could also be a good name if you dont count his dq loss to montell griffen. after his knock out loss to tarver he becames more and more reliant on lateral movement.

    Lateral movement? He stands still now, lateral movement would be great but he doesn't have the legs.
