fighter lost for the first time???? The most shocking one for me, was watching Bernard Dunne getting his ass handed to him by Martinez a few months back. All I kept thinking of was how he'd feel in the morning after the interview he gave a couple days beforehand. He was saying about how he'd keep Martinez at distance with his jab and to keep moving. He said Martinez had never met anybody of the calibre of himself. That, Martinez was disrespecting him by saying he'd knock Dunne out. But when he went down in the first minute, I knew he was beaten. He looked completley lost and all the fans were astounded. The butterflies in my stomach were going crazy. Mental looking at it. Especially that it ended so fast.
I don't know. I wasn't a huge fan of Tyson when he lost for the first time. Mayweather is undefeated. Pacquiao had already lost a couple of fights before I became a fan of him. Corrales had already lost to Mayweather by the time I became a big fan of him. I was sad when Corrales lost to Castillo, dissapointed when he lost to Casamayor. I was sad when Tyson lost to Lewis, but I expected it. Given the nature of the loss, I wasn't really affected when Pacquiao lost to Morales.
Seeing Holyfield lose to Bowe left me with a pretty sick feeling. But, it made the rematch that much sweeter.
When Hopkins lost to Taylor I was thinking damn man if he had just stepped it up sooner he would've beat the **** out of him then they fought again and he did the same **** i was so pissed.
Seeing Jermain Taylor getting knocked out by Pavlik sends chills down my spine everytime i see it, i wanted Jermain to prove all the critics wrong and i though he would as he was ahead IMO, then in a matter of seconds the fight was over, was the most shocked id ever been i had that sick feelng in my stomach and i geuinly felt sorry for Jermain. But it's those type of fights that make you love boxing, the theatre of the unexpected .
It felt like... having my stomach removed and then getting woken up after getting KTFO. Sorta confuzed and sick feeling. Was one bad bad bad day.
Tyson/Douglas scarred me for awhile and then he got his ass handed to him AGAIN by Evander but i never stopped believing. Until that is he got the **** kicked out of him once again by Lewis. Oh yeah and then there was Williams and that big Irish dude. Let me stop before i break down..... :-(
yeah that was a tough one for me to handle. I cant watch the replay of it. It makes me sick that a bum like Tarver got lucky enough to catch Jones on his way down. If Tarver was ever the real deal he would have beaten Harding in 2000 to face Jones who would have easily KO'd him back then. Instead he LOST to Harding and instead Harding got KTFO by Jones. My ONLY wish is for Jones to step up and put the pressure on Tito to beat him then face Tarver one last time and with his old confidence (if he can get it back) can easily TKO him today.
