    when duran quit vs SRL.

    Maidana humping Broner was well deserved.
    Srl was fighting like a clown though. The first fight, he fought like a man.

      When Hagler stopped John the beast Mugabi. Mugabi used to say "If I hit you, you must go". He was in love with his power.

      When Starling put a beatdown on Lloyd Honeyghan.

      Barrera beating down McKinney who was arrogant as hell leading up to the fight.

      When McCallum put out Julian Jackson.

      Robbie Peden flattening the showboating Nate Campbell.

      Chavez stopping Greg Haugen after the taxi driver comments.

            when egotistical maidana was humbled by khan - that's surely got to be the top moment in anyone's book. maidana was supremely confident that he would ko khan, the ego was massive, but instead he gets dropped in the first round, then toyed with for the rest of the fight and treated like a child. that huge ego took a severe beating and maidana almost quit boxing after that fight lol.. it was a great sight to see for us all & possibly one of the best moments in boxing history?

              When Margarito humbled Cotto and made him quit. In Cotto's previous fight with Gomez, he thought he was the grand shit. You should catch the way he looked at Gomez when the bell rang. He wasn't able to do that with Margarito and it was beautiful to be brought down to earth. Specially his nationalistic fans.

                A lot come to mind, but one of my favorites is when Oscar De la Hoya kicked Vargas' ass after he **** talked Oscar about not being a real Mexican or a real fighter.

                Watching Mosely knock the grin off Margarito's face after he got caught cheating by a better cheater was also very entertaining.
