Tune up fights gone bad...

[MANGLER]

Vernon was likely lookin at Mora as a stay busy fight until a 3rd Mayo fight or some other lucrative option became available to him.

Lennox was bidin his time waitin for the Tyson fight when he went to Africa to face Rahman the 1st time.

[Jim Jeffries]

Lennox Lewis/Oliver McCall.

How was Pac vs Barrera I a tune up fight? It was on PPV

I guess I got a freebie from HBO, I didn't pay for it nor did they ask me to pay for it...

Zab Judah vs. Carlos Baldomir.

How about thatr Julio Cesar Garcia dude who was like 40-3 and 20 years old losing to 40 year old Troy Browning who hadn't fought in like 2 years.

ESPN hyped the **** out of him, then the old man beat him up.

Ali vs. Spinks... Neon Leon Spinks only had like 10 fights or some **** and he won the HW title! A feat that will likely never be achieved again...

Tommy Morrison-Michael Bentt

Threw a 5 million dollar payday out the window with Lennox Lewis

Smichet was just supposed to be a tune up for Duddy, but altered the course of Duddy's title hopes for the at least the near future.

Morrison/Bentt was easily the funniest upset that i have ever seen. Morrison was taking on Bentt as a tune up because he was getting prepared to have this mega pay day with Lennox Lewis. Morrison was knocked down 3 times in the first round and was stopped becuase there was a 3 knock down rule. My uncle seen it live and told me that he almost choked on his food from laughing at that.

That's a classic example. It cost Morrison plenty.
