    In tribute to the fight we saw the other night, where we saw Pacquiao gradually break down Cotto en route to a comfortable stoppage victory, let's discuss our favorite beatings in Boxing history. Here's my top 5.

    1. Julio Cesar Chavez vs Greg Haugen
    2. Marco Antonio Barrera vs Paul Llyod
    3. Roberto Duran vs Davey Moore
    4. Bernard Hopkins vs Kelly Pavlik
    5. Thomas Hearns vs Roberto Duran

    LaMotta - Cerdan
    Armstrong - Ross
    Locche - Cervantes or Locche - Fuji. Severe schoolings rather than physical beatings.
    Monzon - Benvenuti I
    Barrera - Hamed. It never gets old.

    Cerdan wasn't ahead from my recollection, he got thoroughly manhandled by LaMotta after trying to rough him up early doors, hence the shoulder injury. He was behind on the scorecards as far as I'm aware.

    For a cruel, sustained beatdown, I have to suggest Jose Torres-Willie Pastrano.

    It was wasn't it? Torres doing what he did best against a slightly depleted version of a great fighter. Brutal. Still, you have to admire Pastrano's humour considering the beating he was taking.

    - "Do you know where you are?"

    - "Yeah, I'm in Madison Square Garden getting the **** kicked out of me!"
