                      Azumah Nelsons knockout of Jeff Fenech in their second fight was his career defining win.

                      James Toneys career defining fight is open to interpretation in my humble opinion. You could make a case for Nunn, Barkley, Jirov, Williams....

                      Diego Corrales' career defining fight was obviously his win over Castillo in their first bout.

                      Pernell Whitakers career defining fight was tough also, but I'd say a toss up between Chavez, Ramirez II, and Vazquez. Also in some odd way maybe Hurtado...
