what fighters look good in loss?

[rightsideup]

I will start off with ray leonard against duran he showed tremendous courage.

[K-DOGG]

Holyfield in the first Bowe fight comes to mind.

[Scott9945]

I will start off with ray leonard against duran he showed tremendous courage.

That's a good example.

Azumah Nelson launched his career with a surprisingly good effort against Salvador Sanchez.

[Anthony342]

Hearns against Leonard and Hagler.

[Panamaniac]

I will start off with ray leonard against Duran he showed tremendous courage.

I agree with that and ironically enough, according to popular opinion, that same Duran looked good in his loss against Hagler. Personally, I don't think it was that big a deal...

Others that immediately come to mind - Ali vs. Frazier I (even though he got knocked on his ass), both of Frazier's losses against Ali... In general, the losers in all close fights that go the distance.

Pacquaio Vs Marquez in the 4th fight? I know Marquez knocked him the f*** out, but still...

Chavez Jr. against Sergio Martinez

Berto against Ortiz?

Chavez Jr. against Sergio Martinez

Berto against Ortiz?

I would argue with your last two. I feel when we say looking good in defeat means they looked good through out, or most of, the fight.

Chavez didn't show a pulse till the 12th, and Berto basically quit after the last knock down.

[SBleeder]

Hearns against Leonard and Hagler.

Against Leonard, definitely.

Hagler-Hearns was a one-sided beatdown.
