    Just saw Lionel Butler vs. Brian Nielsen, that one was pretty bad. Nielsen landed a sort of jab to Butler's stomach who went down and was unable to beat the count.

    Now, I guess I'll go with dive in this one, but I know I've heard Nielsen's name linked to fixed fights before. In this regard it's pretty clear Butler didn't train and maybe he just took a dive to get out of there, but I think even that version of Butler could have ran with Nielsen.

    Mitchell Banks II and Chisora - Scott are two recent fights where I thought the guys gave up or rolled over.

    Canelo vs Baldomir. The iron chinned Balderthal took a dive, instead of going the 12 round distance. Oscar probably slid him some cash in an Argentinean bank account.

    Other guys would mysteriously "retire" in between rounds even when doing well.

    Like you said, he was linked to some shady **** and more than one fighter spoke out about it.

    JMM vs Likar Ramos was clearly either a fix or dive.

    The Liston vs Ali fights and some of Lamotta's fights. Some of Tyson's post-prison fights.
