    Fight that ruined a fighter wether they won or lost?

    What's a fight that you a sure ruined a fighter wether they won or lost. A fight where you believe they never recovered from. Obvious for me would be David Ried after the Trinidad fight.

            Martinez after Chavez Jr

            never seen someone declining so dramatically after just one fight

            basically he went from superman to dog ****

            got his ass handed to him by a handpicked nobody like Murray

            Sergio lost everything: power, speed, reflexes, accuracy, punch resistance, heck even heart, just look at how he was *****ing and acting all clasless, feigning low blows, headbutts and what not in the Murray fight, acting all ****y and showboating to compensate for his horrible performance, and failing miserably

            Sergio Martinez died as a top fighter that fateful night of Sept 15. He won that fight but his prime perished at the hands of the ganja kid from Mexico

            He'll be missed

              Bute/Froch (Bute has no hope after that killing) and Khan/Prescott (Khan became successful still but his skills were always questioned after that fight) Pacman losing two times in a row could be seen as a downfall if his next PPV doesn't draw as much because the Pacman aura of his fights may have gone now.

                Meldrick Taylor vs Chavez

                Taylor was never the same, it literally ruined his career and his mental health.

                  A "nobody" and someone "nothing special" who beat two world champions. Yep Ok. Nice one.
