Any of Maidana's losses are just considered Greek mythology.

Originally posted by soul_survivor View PostLOOOL This one, people act like he wasn't schooled or say it was a robbery, JMM barely won 3 rounds and Bradley showed what happens when he boxes well.
People also conveniently forget JMM V John
I'd also like to add: Lewis v Rahman/McCall
Those two brutal KO losses are barely mentioned these days but it just shows that Lewis had a pretty average chin at best
Not only that, but who the hell pretends it didn't happen?
That fight gets talked about a lot, because it clearly shows that Marquez, like Hopkins, has some limitations to what he can now do due to his age.
Did you see the two shots Lewis got hit with? They would have knocked out just about any other HW in history, and they haven't been forgotten since the second they happened. In fact, they are brought up a hell of a lot considering he beat both in rematches.
Lewis fought a lot of big punchers. A lot. He only went down twice in his entire career, from those two shots.

Originally posted by IIG View PostI came in to say Dawson-Hopkins 2 but got beat to the punch. Dawson pretty much schooled B-Hop. The pieces are in place for Hopkins to unify 175 right now, but it's hard to forget that he would've never gotten past Bad Chad if Stevenson didn't remove him from the equation.
People call some fights nowadays a "schooling" that don't look like schoolings at all. Like Lomachenko vs Russell Jr, I thought it was a good, competitive fight that Lomachenko clearly won, but I see some posters saying Russell got schooled.
Boxers who got schooled in recent years were Rigo-Donaire, Mayweather-Guerrero, Hopkins-Pascal, Lara-Trout.

Two recent fights I prefer not to remember.
Kirkland vs Ishida- I mean What the hell?
Lemieux vs Rubio- ugh
Two of my favorite action fighters hit the skids over the same weekend. Worst boxing weekend I ever had.
