    Pac Hatton wasn't so much a 'beatdown' because it happened so fast and wasn't 'prolonged.' Now, DLH vs Pac on the other hand...

    I meant just losses in general.... Pretty sure shane mosley most recent fight will be his last but it wasn't a bad L....

    I can't think of too many others off my hand right now

    Would put Sugar Ray Leonard is high atop this list. His last two fights were beatings.

    ATG is a stretch but Riddick Bowe could rank here...without counting his nondescript comeback, the 2 Golota fights were ugly.

    Archie Moore vs. Ali was no good...

    James Jeffries (obviously, everybody knows the circumstances here, but I think because of that and the importance of the original Fight of the Century, he should get a nod). Kind of goes along with what was already mentioned in Louis vs. Marciano.

    Recently, I do believe Oscar de la Hoya vs. Pacquiao would qualify. It's not Pac's fault Oscar took money in exchange for beatdown.

    The entire last year + of Ezzard Charles' career...

    Hatton vs Pac shouldn't feature, because Hatton didn't do anything worse than he has always done it. He fought the way he always did, he just met someone who knew how he threw punches, and knew the perfect shots to throw to exploit that. Hatton's performance vs Pac is nowhere near as declined from his peak as RJJ's performances 2004-2011 have been from Jones's 90s peak. Hatton would've beaten down the Malignaggis and the Urangos that night just as he did a bit earlier in his career.

    Trinidad also took a pretty one sided hammering to a shot Jones, and the fight against Winky while not a beat down per se was pretty embarrassing for a man who was such a force way back when.

    Winky Wright vs Paul Williams.

    Williams would've been tailor-made for a prime Wink, but turned out it was a whitewash.
