    Mayweather/Hatton...After all the buildup! All the millions of articles from Hatton lovers on the internet!! After all the "Hatton would never be KO" to be KTFO like that was just the most embarrassing thing.

      40 year old Leonard was destroyed in the 5th round by Camacho and Camacho has 37 KO's out of 78 wins so he isn't exactly a power puncher.


      Here is the humiliating loss. Sad ending to a great career.


      Bentt vs Morrison. This has got to be one of the most embarrassing losses ever.

        All of the above.

        He went out there fought his ass off and got caught in the 7th round. He was beaten by the better man but gave a great showing of himself.

        So tell me again what was so embarassing about that?

          He lost to the best fighter in the world. It was decisive, but not embarrassing to lose to the best in the business.

            Hamed was one of the most humbling, because the guy's ego knew no bounds, he had his soul taken away in that fight and he deserved it, a better man would have learned from it, gone back to Brendan Ingle cap in hand with a fresh determination to succeed, but, that thing that makes a fighter really special, not the skills, the determination, the feeling that they would rather die than loose was missing. In cricket they have a term 'flat track bully' for a player who can bat against average bowlers and hit them out of the park all day, but when they come up against quality on a decent pitch, they are made to look ordinary. Hamed was a flat track bully, it just took one mexican warrior to show us that

              Since it's in the news today, Cintron's loss to Margarito was embarrassing. No matter who you picked, everyone expected a tough fight. Cintron fell apart like an amateur as soon as he got hit.

                  Taylor's defeat was not embarassing. He did his best and the fight was definately even until he got knocked out. Kelly was indeed breaking him down, but Taylor did his share of damage as well.

                    Bull, even though he wasa favourite, anyone with half a brain were pulling for Pavlik.
