Ali getting beat up by Holmes is hands down the saddest moment I ever had boxingwise. This is the prototypical example of a fighter completely past it and still going for the big payday even though the body doesn't respond to the brain.
Seeing these things today (for example RJJ) still makes me feel bad, but never as bad as it did with Ali.

One fighter's loss that saddened me was when Arguello loss to Pryor, even though I liked both of them.
I was wondering what fighter you might have liked enough that you were actually moved to sadness when he lost?
Arguello losing to Pryor

Anytime a washed-up former great has his career end with a beat down saddens me. Especially when that beat-down is delivered by a fighter who wouldn't have belonged in the same ring with the former great when he was in his prime.
