Most devastating losses?

a fight that saw both fighters never be the same afterwords

bowe vs golota I & II

 

Another good one. To throw a classic in there, I'll add the St. Valentine's Day Massacre between Robinson and Lamotta.

 

good one

 

You mean Cuevas?

 

Schmeling's loss to Joe Louis was devastating on many levels. It devasted Max, and I imagine that the Third Reich wasn't too happy about it, either.

 

Hamed-Barrera

 

Good list, but Spinks has come back from that loss pretty well.

 

i think the biggest has to be Hagler-Leonard...haglers been crying ever since

 

fenech after first nelson fight

 

Benn v. McClellen

 

disagree with many on here...
Vargas/Tito, cause Vargas came back and even still has been very active.
Spinks/Taylor is a ridiculous mention, in mine and Spinks eyes he won that fight, hell definately be back.
ray mancini/ alexis arguello, this was just a growing pain for Mancini but he came back to fight another day.

I think Hamed/ Barrera is a good one. Haglar/ Leonard. Just cause both these guys were goners after their fight.

The biggest myth was Ali/ Foreman, i think this was the best thing that happened to Foreman, so i guess it was a devastating loss but life changing for the better.
