Leonard vs. Duran I. Leonard chose to brawl with Duran.

Hagler vs. Leonard. Hagler's decision to start othodox and continuing to do so for several rounds was not a smart decision IMO.

Yep, Leonard beat Hagler with his own ego. Hagler seemed like he wanted to prove he could box with Leonard.

Some white guy tried to steamroll mike tyson right after he got out of jail. that was sort of funny but it kind of worked until it didn't.

Norton vs Shavers. Laying on the ropes and taking a beating from one of the hardest punchers of all time was surely not the best of ideas.

Bowe vs Holyfield III. After using movement to beat Bowe in their rematch, Holyfield decides to go right at Bowe (which had lost him the first fight) and eat numerous uppercuts flush. For a moment it seemed as if he could actually win but he was way too tired to capitalize on a stunned Rid**** Bowe.

You know when you said stunned there it reminded me of the second fight, i dont think people realize that Bowe was rocking in one of those early round just before the bell, i cant remember what round it was but he deffo looked stunned to me.

I agree Bowe was hurt there but in the third fight he seemed finished. Holyfield was simply not able to throw any punches, he had put everything into the left hook he knocked Bowe down with and could hardly raise his arms at that point.

Could have been one of the most amazing comebacks of all time because Holyfield was truly taking a beating and George Foreman was actually shouting at the referee to stop it right before Holyfield knocked Bowe down.

Speaking of terrible gameplans, I really don't know what Bowe's plan was in the rematch with Golota. Perhaps he was too weight-drained because the only thing he did in that fight was lay against the ropes and absorb punishment. Golota actually landed nearly 100 punches in one of the rounds.

In the end he did win as Golota was looking for a way out but he paid a heavy price.
