    Most embarressing loss by the "greatest" fighter, Muhammad Ali
    is his lost to then 6-0-1 fighter Leon the "latest" Spinks.Spinks fought a gutsy fight being the aggressor and hitting Ali with everything he had. But his techinique was horrible and Ali had no business losing to someone like Leon. But, I guess all great fighters have off nights once in a while.

YES, both men were waaaayyyy past their prime BUT Leonard was in the ring with the likes of Duran,Benitez,Hearns,Hagler and Norris. Those men couldnt stop Leonard like Camacho did. What's more crazier Camacho is a ***** cat... a cuttie afraid to take risks, get hit etc. Seeing that Camacho started his career at 130 and Leonard at 147...Camacho stopped the great Ray Leonard...God damn that's embarrassing!!! Ray Leonard is also one of favorite fighters of all time...that hurted when I seen that **** go down.
                ** Camacho couldn't break an egg at 160, but at least he's a HOF lock.

                Undisputed heavyweight champ Ali losing to inexperienced amateur Neon Leon who proved to be nothing but a marginal journeyman, that is the biggest embarrassment in boxing history. It's also a shameful part of the Ali legacy, but not surprising given the way he had been propped up with gift decisions his last years.

                  I would love to see him show the world, whos the real heavyweight champ again, but hes past his prime. These other pretenders wouldnt be able to tie Iron Mikes shoelace when he was in his prime.
                  .....................................lol..holyfiel d..whooped him in his prime...he fits in the category with the HWs in the division today...but the problem is i dont think he would do as good today if he was in his prime u gotta remember Mike fought alot of nobodies to get to the championship and when he fought some good fighters he got his ass handed to him.....can we say over-rated!...so go on with that and have a nice day!
