I think the excuses for the brewster fight varied from drugged, low blood sugar, to pores not breathing I don't think there were any excuses for the Sanders fight, Wlad just got blitz krieged
Foreman claiming he was about to knock Ali out but got distracted by his disloyal friend rooting for Ali has always been one of my personal faves.
That wasn't an excuse for losing. That was a question about outside the ring distractions, Tyson had beaten Etienne inside of a minute.

In the 5th round a powerful odor, coming from the German, gave Sasha a bad headache and made his vision hazy. Shame we didn't react to it as soon as he told us. Such dirty tactics were used in the past and although I don't have any evidence, I'm certain Huck also used it."
When one the Peterson brothers( not Lamont, I forgot the kids name) got dq'ed for low blows, and claimed he wasn't doing it on purpose after the fourth or fifth one.
