The one thing that bothers me about a "legend" fighting on past his prime, especially when they are shot, is the nonsense you hear from people like "See, I told you so...this is how it would have always been," while forgetting how good the fighter was at their Peak/Prime.
So, here are some fights and feel free to add.
Jack Johnson vs. Jeffries
Jack Johnson vs. Willard
Dempsey vs. Tunney
Marciano vs. Louis
Clay vs. Liston {arguably past his prime}
Ali {arguably past his peak} vs. Frazier
Ali vs. Holmes
Holmes {past his prime} vs. Tyson
Tyson {past his peak} vs. Douglas
Tyson vs. Lewis {both past their prime/Tyson shot}
Tyson vs. Holyfield {both past their prime}
Tszyu vs. Hatton
Mayweather vs. Oscar
Leonard vs. Hagler {arguably past his peak}
Joe Calzaghe vs. Hopkins {both past their peak, Hopkins past his prime}
Roy Jones Jr. vs. Joe Calzaghe {Roy shot, Joe past his peak}
