Fritzie Zivic claims he threw quite a few fights because he was earning more to throw them than win them. I’m just not sure which ones he threw.
The Ali/Liston fights come to mind.
Two of Floyd’s exhibitions with Japanese opponents looked suspect.
Carnera/Sharkey II

Watch the way Willie Pep (Lulu Perz fight) catches his fall and eases himself down to the canvas in the same manner.
Gloves down, elbows up.
Pep-Perez was fixed.
P.S. Third KD.

if you watch it i reckon seldon was still not right after earlier punches because up close after second down he really looked wobbly and not there. i think it might have been overstimulation of fear combined with earlier blows but i don't reckon he was diving i reckon his mind was wobbled to find a better word.
he looked absolutely terrified like i only ever saw in tyson opponents. the only reason tyson lost to douglas is he was partying too hard the previous nights. to even be able to fight at all after shagging all night on booze is incredible on it's own, tyson had a tragic and amazing life but he said he only started to appreciate things in recent years.max baer likes this.
