Let's talk about the elephant in the room ... I got up to page 3 and still haven't seen a single mention of Mathysse .. The fighters who lost 10+ years ago are the sexier pick but in terms of sheer disappointment/devastation ... He has to be up there.. Not for me of course lol.Comment

Nothing depressed me more than Pacquiao vs De La Hoya
I also shit my pants when Victor Ortiz quit the first time
I was getting depressed in the Pac/Bradley fight, but then Bradley won so I immediately snapped out of my depressed
And I was (and kinda still am) pissed about the Matthysse/Garcia
The difference between the first 2 (DLH and Ortiz) and the last one (Matthysse) is that I was still in my boxing fan infancy, I didn't actually know how to properly analyze a fight... By the time Matthysse/Garcia came around I knew/know my shit... Everything I predicted in that fight happened up until that damn eye swelled... Suddenly, in one accidental instance, I have to eat crows feet for what I was saying here despite doing my research to the nose (and basically being absolutely correct)...
And yes, I totally knew Tim couldn't possibly handle Manny, but I didn't judge the fight lolComment

And I was also pretty depressed about the Donaire fight... Up until he turned into an excuse machine after the fight... It left a bad taste in my mouth and I ended up not feeling bad that he lost...
And I am/was a huge Donaire fan... I just couldn't help itComment

And I was just a little kid when this happened, but I didn't take the first Pacquiao/Morales fight very well... But as a kid, and since I didn't really follow boxing ("Hey, there's a Filipino fighting, he's really good, check him out") I got over that pretty quick...
Especially since the Rock never let me downComment
