    Gerry C00ney KO1 Ken Norton is maybe the ultimate example of this.

    I watched the Chris Eubank-Michael Watson in 1991. A good fight was marred by a sad ending.............

    Schmelling v Hamas
    Graziano v Servo

    I'm trying to find fights where the loser was still decent. Naming Ali and Norton "being beaten into retirement" after a long career is not the same. it's just the natural order of things.

    Vitali should have beaten Briggs into retirement, but Shannon was just too tough ;)

    what about planet kliturd ones -

    and wlad seems to beat almost all his recent challengers into retirement, never to be heard of again. almost as if they werent pro boxers to being with.

    Vitali got beat by Lewis "in order to send him into retirement".

    or the klitscko treble retirement job - retired failure corrie sanders instantly beat prime wlad into retirement, but then was beat back into retirement by vits which then resulted in wlad coming out of retirement/gibbering hiding.


    bizarre stuff.
