    I was really disappointed with Canelo for his loss to Mayweather. I thought he could have done so much better than what his performance was.

    Roy vs Glen Johnson, guy fought like a corpse. Insane that he's still going ten years after.

    Andrew Golota. I remember watching his brawl with Tongan powerpuncher Samson Pouha, and thinking this guy is one tough SOB and is a fighter to watch out for. Despite fouling out against Bowe twice, I expected him to give Lewis a tough time. instead blown away early by Lewis, Tyson, Brewster, Austin, and the quit job against Michael Grant in a fight he was winning. Funny enough, I still feel he beat John Ruiz, and should have held the WBA belt.

    Kessler vs Calzaghe just seemed to be overwhelmed by the Big Fight extravaganza as I see it.

    Eastman v BHop, Eastman could have gave MUCH more.

    was disappointed in Hagler v Leonard, I thought the Marvellous one should have knocked him right out, I think many people wanted that!

    poor Gatti v Mayweather, out classed but Gatti could've offered a bit more.

    man if you took the time to run through the years there'd be dozens & dozens of these disappointments.

    Tyson v Lewis has got to be the biggest as Tyson beats Lewis EVERY blinking Time except on that Sedated night, which I have always thought his 'meds' played apart in. I remember too someone looked into what he was taking at the time and commented to the effect!

    Canelo deserved to be embarrassed the way he was .

    Worst gameplan ever . Guerrero performed better than him

    Many disappointments...

    one that comes to mind is Joe Cortez embarrassing job in the May-Hatton fight, Not that I feel overwhelmingly that Hatton would have won, but Cortez gave him no chance and utterly defused what could have been a classic.

    Light middleweight Richard Williams.

    Nice, nice style. Really thought he had everything but things just did not pan out.

    Gutted when Tommy lost to Hagler and those two defeats handed out to the late, great Big John Tate.
