  • Fight that took a lot out of fighters?

    Thereare obvious ones like Ali vs Frazier etc, but, are there any others?
    Hagler vs Mugabi. Mugabi a MW killing machine, unbeaten, all KO's, fights Hagler and get's KTFO by Terry Norris.

    Any others?

      One of my favourite fights, Page was excellent, he was going to fight Trinidad but I dont remember why they never met in the ring in the end.

          Felix Trinidad absolutely ruined Vargas and Reid. Niether were ever the same again.

            Chavez completely ruined Taylor and you could say that the Leonard fight took a lot of Duran. Not physically, but it sated his thirst to win a little bit. He was never quite as fierce or determined, although it broke through in a few fights (Barkley springs to mind).

              Page really was great in the Lopez fight. Too bad his personal life and subsequently his conditioning went down the toilet. He looked pathetic when losing to Six Heads Lewis.

                Holyfield may have taken a lot out of Bowe in their three fights. I don't think motivation was the main problem I think I heard that Bowe started having coordination problems.

                    Norton was done by the time the Cooney fight came. I'd say the Holmes fight was his last great hooraa and the one that sapped him of anything he had left. Jmo.
