I remember pacquiao Morales two.. and how it was such a shock seen Erik go down, during that match i got up and yelled at Erik 'why do u keep leaning f*cken forward" ????? he was taking all this unneccessary punishment and he kept doing that, it took me few years to get over that match but eventually i did..
what are your WORST moments involving your favorite Boxer?? it could be headlines, or doings OUTSIDE of the ring, anything is acceptable..
i knew Dela hoya was gonna lose against manny infact i made 240 dollars betting against 3 people all together lol, but man seeing hoya get beat like that shocked the hell out of me..

How could I leave out Mike Tyson getting stopped by Douglas.
Or worse, Danny Williams. Danny Williams!!!
Arguello weeping after the Pryor fight.
Johnson when he was horrifically robbed against Pastrano or perhaps being stopped by Bob Satterfield.
Dick Tiger when he was knocked out cold by Bob Foster.
Mayweather Castillo 1. One of the worst decisions I've ever seen.
This tells me one of two things
1. You don't know how to score.
2. You haven't seen many decisions.
So which is it?
It wasn't a domination, it was a close fight. Calling it one of the worst decisions you've ever seen says more about you than it does the fight
Posted this before in one of the forums. The subject is still relevant if not theraputic:
To this day I can't bare to rewatch the Tyson/Douglas fight.
But with Sup (That's what I call him), I sometimes find myself rewatching that 2nd fight with Tarver and actually hoping for a different outcome. I went through the FOUR stages of grief with that fight.
1. Denial: When Sup slumped back like he did after that "lucky lick", I didn't even flinch. I actually tricked my brain into believing that the knockdown didn't happen.
2. Anger: Immediately, I viewed Tarver as the typical tattle-telling cousin from the suburbs who "snucked" me and then ran and snitched. (He didn't even see the ko punch he threw with his eyes closed as he was clearly losing the fight)
3. Barganing: "Please god... Tell me this isn't happening!!!"
4. Depression: You could literally tell who all the RJJ fans were by the body language and the look on the faces at work the following monday.
Im a huge mayweather fan, as well as Manuel Marquez.
I thought it was rediculous for mayweather to fight Marquez at a catchweight, and even much more rediculous for him to come in over weight.
The fight should have never happened and proved nothing
De La Hoya vs Pacquiao
I had so much confidence in Oscar to finally shut bias Filipino fans up
Ortiz vs Maidana
Ortiz PHYSICALLY has everything a fighter needs to be unbeatable... Low and behold, the one thing he lacks ruined his entire career... But BOY did I make excuses for him after this fight
Bradley vs Pacquiao... I hate Pacquiao :'(
When Roy got KO'd by Tarver... **** had me speechless! I wish he would've got KO'd by Lewis at heavyweight instead.
And for a couple seconds during the 2nd rd of Mosley vs Mayweather... the 1st hard shot didn't bother me but when Mosley buckled Floyd's knees on the 2nd hard shot it made me gasp. When Floyd recovered instantly and came right back at Mosley I knew that Floyd was damn near unstoppable in any weight he campaigns at. I'm sure that moment made the Pac fanboys get a boner until they saw how pissed Floyd got after that and the way he dominated the fight.
The bold for me as well. To top it off the wife & fam threw me a surprise b-day party & bought the fight. I've never gotten over it.
Linares getting stopped by Demarco
I'm probably one of the only die hard Linares fans on this site...and watching him fight his heart out just to fall short and get battered was hard to watch.
Specially with my countrymen celebrating Demarco
Dawson losing to Pascal was pretty bad for me to. I lost every single point I have on that fight. I went all in with no doubt in my mind Dawson would put a beating on him. It wasn't even the loss it was HOW he lost, just not showing up until the later rounds smfh.
