      Douglas' win over Tyson. I don't think he ever mentally recovered from that loss.

      Barrera vs Hamed

      Jones KO loss to Tarver

      Hatton's KO loss to Manny

      Maybe too soon to determine but I'd guess Spence's loss to Crawford

      Wilder's losses to Fury

      Kirkland's KO loss to Canelo

        Inspired by Ghost's signature picture here's some old ones.

        Corbett finished Sullivan completely.

        Dempsey finished Willard. Willard fought a few competive rounds with Firpo later, but sat down on a soft spot early.

        Louis finished Baer but he needed one more to make sure.

        Fitzsimmons finished Jack Dempsey Nonpareil.

            I think Spinks was genuinely scared, whereas Seldon just threw the fight for whatever reason.

              Adrien Broner vs. Marcos Maidana... Maidana destroyed Bronner for good.

                It's one of my favorite moments ever in the history of boxing, to be honest.

                    Yeah, watching him being let out by the giant security guard obviously traumatized. I felt some sorrow... But like Mark Twain said about exercise: My sorrow soon passed!

                      Chavez-Taylor I'd say ended his career as an elite fighter.

                      Roy Jones-Tarver as well.
