      It's got to be RJJ's KO by Tarver. Sure we have a lot of great fighters who lost with great embarrashment . . . but what could be worst than the HERALDED top p4p being sent flat on back by a not so good opponent.

        Agreed. Then knocked out by a journeyman. Roy really needs to quit or become focused again.

          I forgot about that one. Yes it's always sad to see a great past his prime get beat by a sub-par fighter. Also ranking pretty high has got to be Joe Louis getting brutaly beaten by Rocky Marciano (who use to idolize Joe when he was a kid)

            Also I think Duran lost a 3 round decision to some japanese pro rassler in an exibition bout. That's pretty embarrasing to even win that crap.

                    Duran loss in exhb, damn, now thats embarassing. Gotta remember though, Duran prime was at light-weight, not middle. For most of his career, he wasnt near his peak fitness as a middleweight.

                      Roy Jones Jr.'s loss to Tarver because before the fight Jones talked about how he could not be beaten. And then one punch ended in 2 rounds.
