The first fight that came to mind has already been mentioned:
Scott Harrison vs Wayne McCullough
I felt sick watching that!
A few others:
Tyson vs Biggs
Jones vs Pazienza
Jones vs Brannon
Patterson vs Johannson 2
Pac vs De La Hoya
Pac vs Hatton (I honestly thought Hatton might have suffered a serious injury. Very uncomfortable to watch post KO!)
Trinidad vs David Reid

A couple more:
Calzaghe vs Lacy: This was in Calzaghe's "slapping" phase, where numerous hand problems had forced him to change his punching style. Where he might have knocked Lacy out in in earlier years, he instead dished out probably the most one-sided beating I've ever seen at the world class level without the other fighter being stopped.
V Klitschko vs Sanders: Sanders has been KOed in the first a few times, but for some reason he was able to soak up an incredible number of flush punches from the hard hitting Vitali without going down before the ref stepped in. How he managed to do that I'll never know.
Khan vs Barrera: Pretty self-explanatory.
Samuel Peter vs James Toney II: one of the few fights where Toney was genuinely getting rocked and hurt. What was sad was that he was too macho (or perhaps just too fat) to get out of the way of Peter's punches, instead staying in the pocket and trying to roll with them as in the past. This is probably the fight that reduced Toney's IQ from three digits to two.
Mayweather vs Mosley: Again, pretty self-explanatory.
Margarito vs Cotto: This is one of those fights where both guys take massive punishment. In the end it boiled down to who could take more, and that was Margarito.
Michael Brodie vs In Jin Chi I: Gruelling and underrated war where both fighters punched each other's guts to pulp. Featured loads of headbutts and head-snapping punches as well.
