      tyson in the kevin mcbride fight. i know it was his last fight and he needed some money but he should have gone all out to finish with a good attempt or even a win if he was determined enough

          Hopkins vs Taylor - He could've easily won either of the two if he didn't opt to take the first few rounds as some sort of sparring session. I still think he won the rematch pretty damn convincingly, but the judges still didn't give it to him, and it was close. (I had it 115-113 for Bernard)

          Barrera vs. Pacquiao 2 - Another example of a fighter not letting his hands go often enough. Pacquiao looked like absolute dog**** this night IMO, and Barrera could've easily capitalized on it and made some sort of statement, and possibly even gotten a win. When he let his hands go, he looked like the Barrera of old, but he rarely ever let them go to begin with.
          i gotta say those were two of mine as well after thinking about this more. Hop could of easily made it more convincing and Barrera being hesitant was pissing me off. even though i like both Barrera was and is always one of my top favorites.

          Mike Tyson - he was the reason i got into the sport as a kid.

            I'd have to agree with that too. All that talent and skill gone to waste. He could have been a somebody. He's still ranked though, but i don't think he's getting the big paydays the way he should if he had some fcukin heart.

              Zab Judah, no need to explain.

              Jermaine Taylor. He had that second fight against Pavlik, he just started gassing out at the end.
