    Best performance by a boxer in a match he lost?

    I was watching Katsidis/Casamayor again and this thread idea came to mind.

    In your opinion, what was the best performance by a fighter in a match that he lost?

    Katsidis showed the viewer everything you needed to know about him in that fight. He had his will tested early with the knockdowns, show serious heart taking the damage he took, rallied back in vicious exchanges and scored a knockdown of Casamayor, and then lost when he got caught with the hook.

    Anything you want to know about Michael Katsidis can be learned from watching that one fight.

    Other examples?

                  I gotta say Oscar de la Hoya against Tito Trinidad. He never looked that good again. Combos, movement, everything. He boxed beautifully for 3/4 of the fight, then ran out of gas and stayed away.
