    Most one sided beating taken by a fighter that won?

    The great thing about boxing is a fight is never over because one punch can win the fight.

    So what are the most one sided fights that have been turned by a KO.

    I can think of JCC beating Taylor but while be was way behind he wasn't really hurt much and Taylor was getting hurt throughout the fight.

    Also Julian Jackson and Errol Graham was one.

    There must be more though.

    And no Lewis v Vitali please.

    There's a couple out there. Chris Byrd vs Vitali Klitschko comes to mind. Moorer - Foreman is another.

    More recently, you could say Taylor - Froch. Though it wasn't a beating, he was well behind on the cards before KOing Taylor.

      I always felt that Lara put a beat down on Williams a few years ago just to lose on the cards. Not sure if it counts since Williams never touched the canvas

              Pavlik took a beating before picking himself off the canvas twice and KO'ing Taylor.

                Hearns vs Barkley is a good one. Iran was getting smashed to bits before he got lucky.

                  Alvarado was getting his ass handed to him before he KO'd Prescott

                    Ali vs. Foreman

                    Ali was getting the hell beat out of him, and has since admitted that he suffered terrible damage in that fight, particularly to the body.

                    I've never seen a fight change direction so quickly and dramatically as that fight.

                    Everyone thinks Ali built his career on his trilogy with Frazier, but the truth is, beating Foreman in such dramatic and unlikely fashion is his Ali's most noteworthy career achievement.

                    Ali became a legend that day.
