What are boxing matches where a very tough boxer gets broken down and stopped?

      When I say tough fighter I mean someone like Ruslan Provodnikov.

      Cotto moved a lot.
      Cotto was a beast! I think he was best at 140 which is where he showed the most heart and grit but he brought it up to 147 too, Margarito was just relentless. The whole fights on youtube, check it out. Also the best fight ever was Castillo vs. Corrales...

        That's what I thought.

        I'm talking about a fighter like prime Shane Mosley getting KO'd -- he almost did against Forrest.

            Shane Mosley vs Antonio Margarito comes to mind.

            I think Librado Andrade got stopped before tko or something.

                Doesn't matter. He cracked his chin. Mayweather fought Oscar's leftovers.

                De La Hoya loosened the pickle jar for Mayweather.

                    Oh I agree Gatti was a shell of himself by the time he fought Mayweather. I mean, after Oscar he had the three Ward fights back to back to back. That alone took pretty much everything he had left. And the Floyd fight was three years after that epic trilogy. Not that I don't think Floyd wouldn't have beat him easily, just sayin that was certainly a past prime version of Gatti and that the Oscar fight wasn't really a fair fight even though he was closest to prime (but Gatti played that game himself and fought and beat smaller fighters too). I'm kinda rambling now. I'll see myself back to the Game of Thrones thread where I belong lol

                      As previously said, Shane-Margarito is perfect. Margarito was like a zombie but shane brutalized him with titanic shot after titanic shot. No one has been able to do that to him.

                      Bradley vs Rios

                      Oscar vs B Hop

                      Pac vs Barrera 1..Barrera was a tough proud dude and just got steam rolled.


                      Oh and Matthysse vs Postol.
