:deal Agree mate. This sits up there with the best blow outs. Either he felt threatened by what he seen in what Golota done to Bowe, or he was pissed that Golota was favourite and many picked him to beat Lewis, or he simply didn't think much of Golota. Whatever, Lewis was in destroy mode here and on that form i'd pick him over anyone.
i like dempsey and im not here to troll, but he had every adevantage possible, he got to stand over his man (almost middle age) and hit him repeatedly from behind, he also used horse hair gloves, imagin foreman frazier where george gets to stand over frazier and he has horse hair gloves, the funn thing is, george foreman frazier, and dempsey willard, willard and frazier were not knocked out the ref or there camp had stopped the fight.
Most of Tysons fights in early titlle years, like Berbick and Spinks. Marciano agianst Walcott, since Marciano had to fight blinded through middle rounds, and come back from first round knockdown. Same for 2nd Charles fight, when his nose was split and he had one round to get ko, and got it. Louis Shmeling 2 was awesome.
I think opponent has to be something special to qualify, and not give bad performance. Golota stunk out the place when he fought Lewis. Lennox Lewis had an amateur fight that was awesome, when he ko'd Riddick Bowe. He hit Bowe so hard on side of head, Bowe started walking away like ht was looking for way back to dressing room
I like Frazier in FOTC Ali couldn't stop him and even if 67 Ali was in the ring that night, it would have made no difference to the overall result

Foreman-Frazier came to mind for me - although never seen anyone fight a dumber fight than Frazier fought in that one?? Part of me thought Foreman V Norton was even better for pure unstoppableness - by that stage Foreman look impervious to anything - at least in the first challenge against Frazier he still looked a little bit careful before he registered the first knockdown (which for me looked a bit wierd too? If you slow it down Fraziers knee is dipping down before Foremans uppercut connects?? Very odd??
