    Kessler Vs. Andrade.
    How Andrade was able to stay on he´s feet for 12 rounds,was incredible!!
    He took some really hard shots in that fight,thats for sure...He´s a tough,tough fighter!

    One of the most onesided beatings is,imo Floyd vs. Gatti,when it comes to title fights.

    2 bogus KDs made the score look closer than it actually was, he really just won 2 rounds total.

    I agree with Kobe ... Sam took a terrible beating that night and i do not think he was ever really the same after.
    Some of the clips of that fight the punches sound like gunshots, even though Peter took them well it just can not be healthy.

    :good I feel Samuel is in for a big test when he fights Chambers, who I feel is one hell of a boxer with extremely fast hands, especially his jab. He was beating Povetkin through the first half of the fight until he ran out of gas, if his stamina was a little better I think he would of won that night.

    This fight really does scare me, and thats why I think it's a 50/50, a make or break fight if you will. Sam has to come out looking to take Chambers head off, because he will get outboxed if he doesn't I'm afraid. I think his team picked a terrible fight for Peter to comeback to, but I guess if he wins this one by knockout, he's right back in the title picture again.

    A couple of short but classics with overmatched but over-game opponents: Fraizer/Foreman I, Dempsey/Willard.

    Gotta agree with the earlier poster who called Duran's beatdown of Davey Moore - worst beating i've ever seen in a boxing ring.
     
  10. Holmes beat Cobb to hell and back over 15 rounds, only Cobb could have taken that kind of punishment that was inhumane...:-(

    i'll throw a little-guy fight in there and bring up Jorge Arce vs Michael Carbajal...this was a young strong Arce vs a shot Carbajal who retired after this fight...Carbajal was getting destroyed brutally for 10 rds, then with both eyes swollen and shut catches Arce and finishes him in the 11th...Carbajal was really getting hammered the whole nite until that happened...

    Valiant being the key word here. This one is easy for me. Muhammed Ali, but even moreso Joe Frazier in the Thrilla and Manilla. Frazier never forgave Eddie Futch for stopping the fight, even though he was battered and spent like a week in the hospital after that one. There never has been and will never be a more valiant display by a heavyweight than Joe Frazier that night.
