    I was thinking about which fights had crazy endings while making my 15 fights for @Saintpat's thread, and I'd been thinking about this for the last few weeks now.

    Which fights had an insane ending, but not in a disappointing or weird sense, but in an exciting and fantastic sense?

    My two quick examples until I get my dinner break are Sosa vs Williams 1, which ended when both men pulled their guy out of the fight in the same round to save them from too much punishment; and Murphy vs Mutti, which is basically a real life Rocky where both guys go down and the one who got up won.

    Are there any other examples as crazy as these? PS: On Film please, I wanna see them.

    There has been one I have been looking for years after watching on YouTube, I believe the fighter slips over dramatically on their back before then getting knocked out later in the fight. To my recollection it would have been 80’s or early 90’s, but unable to access it again. Perhaps not insane, but very amusing. Immediately the Tszyu vs Judah finish comes to mind but I look forward to following this thread for more.
