    Pipino Cuevas after he lost his title to Tommy Hearns. Cuevas had been unbeaten for five years until Hearns took him apart. He was worthless after that.

    Donald Curry was considered by many the P4P best, but was never really the same again after being upset by Lloyd Honeyghan.

    Alfonso Zamora was the WBA bantam champ, 29-0 with 29 KO's when he battled the WBC bantamweight champion Carlos Zarate. Zamora was destroyed and his record 4-4 with all loses by KO after that. Great fight if you can ever find it.

      I can't believe the most obvious answer took so long to come out.

      I didn't even think of it, but my god, has there ever been a fight when a fighter was so great before and so not after?

        lol, even though Campas lost its a fight that i ilke to watch every now and then, Campas was brave as **** and still has never been off his feet. I mean if Trinidad couldn't get him off his feet with those clean shots then no one ever will.

        And Campas was nowhere near ruined, but after that he would stop a one sided fight that he was a part of but he could still take a lot of punishment just look at his fight against Duddy, that fight was insane.

          The amazing thing about Barrera when he boxed is that it was still extremely exciting, at least to me.

          The first 6 rounds of Barrera-Morales II were ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE in my opinion. Just stellar.

            Jimmy Garcia vs Gabriel Ruelas, this was a sad moment and I felt for Ruelas because he was never going to be the same person nevermind a fighter, Every one who saw this fight will always understand early stopages.

                Has Lacy Calzaghe been said yet? Because that's the first that came into mind.

                      Diego Chico Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo
                      -A war that took alot out of bother fighters esp Chico.. It really drained him..



                      I don't want to mention Lacy vs Calz yet because I'm giving him one more fight to see if he still has it. He was injured in the one of his last 2.. and he was fighting ring rust in December with Manfredo..

                      Which other ones!?
                      Shane wasn't the same after Forrest..

                      Meldrick Taylor moved up to 147 and won a Title..Compare that to what Chavez did after their fight..

                      Chavez wasn't the same either.
