    Said Lawal being KO`d by Naseem at feather in 35 seconds with the first punch Naz threw. Also the spanking Tom Johnson took from Naz when he was rated No.1 by the ring magazine and Naz was rated No.3, he was completely outclassed, then dispatched in humiliating fashion.

    a saw a fight once on tv Shawn OSullivan vs. Simon Brown. OSulllivan a Ray Leonard student whom Ray bankrolled. And Brown was just a stepping stone, and Brown demolished him and hit him to the body so hard his sides were red. Brown won by TKO in 3 I seem to recall. Also, Bramble vs. Rosario.

    HE, I agree with everything except the Hamsho-Czyz bout. I recall at the time backing Hamsho all the way. I thought that there was no way this kid was going to beat Hamsho. However, I will bow to the fact that I can't recall how hyped Czyz was or if he was the favorite. I remember him being a part of that 'Tomorrow's champions' thing that was being pushed with Alex Ramos, Tony Ayala, etc. But again, can't recall the direction the commentators were going with this. Was the hype that thick about Czyz?

    Hatton getting annihilated by pacquiao was a bit embarrassing, especially after Hatton said pac was easy to work out and didn’t have the size to hurt him.

    At the time, Foreman knocking down Frazier 6 times and stopping him in 2 rounds was a bit surprising and pretty embarrassing to Frazier.

    I totally get your point .. I was just remembering how Czyz was this highly hyped up and comer while Hamsho was (mis)cast as an opponent and then Hansho just beat the crap out of him .. Hamsho was one seriously tough guy

    Well I guess it was not a loss, but I always thought Hopkins getting KO’d by referee Mills Lane was pretty embarrassing

    this,Hatton had a reputation for being rugged and never losing at 140 lbs.He was the fighter that made Tszyu quit on his stool.It turns out pac destroyed Cotto and all the top welters after that.That lessoned the blow some.
