      Agreed when you know you won and the majority agrees and you see some guy with the goods that's a sonning. What's worse is living the lie when you know that you know you were given the belts and trying to keep it going in your headspace right before bed time.

          Calzaghe vs Lacy.


          It was so bad I think Lacy's mother is getting child support from Joe now.

            canelo refused to fight ggg for years until he was older, then most thought he lost, even now he is still refusing another fight. how is that sonning? he went up to fight rocky fielding...oh yeah ggg need to do that!

            ward refused to rematch froch in the uk for a career payday so not sure how that can be sonning someone when you refuse to fight them again. don't worry ward tried to fight pavlik and dmitri sartison instead. guess what happened? hbo said no those guys suck, fight bute, froch, ggg, etc...or we sideline you. ward ran to court and lost. 3 times. hbo sonned ward. legal system sonned ward.

              After the Khan fight, Alvarez invited Golovkin into the ring and talked his "..fear died when I was born... lets put the gloves on and fight right now" BS.
              A couple of weeks later, the diva refuses to fight GGG and VACATES the title. WTF??
              Now that amigos, is a deep, public and personal humiliation.

                Which were the greatest cases of sonning you've ever seen in boxing and why? By sonning, I don't mean to dominate the opponent in a fight, it needs to go much deeper than that to be a proper sonning. It needs to be humiliation on the personal level. Some examples of great sonnings I've seen:

                Golovkin talked a lot. About how he would fight anyone from 154 to 168 lb and how Canelo was scared to fight him. Canelo moved up, spanked him twice, made him cry and leave the ring and then proceeded to go up and fight at both 168 and 175 lb, which Golovkin never dared to do. Now, Golovkin is begging Canelo for a third fight. This was a true example of sonning, making Golovkin look like a complete waanker.

                Shakur Stevenson completely sonned Joet Gonzales, who hated him and wished him dead. He's just a kid, 22 years old, but he ****** Joet's little sister, made her support him against Joet, bullied Joet at the build up to the fight and then dominated him completely when they fought. He then went the high road, trying to comfort Joet after spanking him, but Joet was a bitter waanker. The sonning was just too great for him to bear.

                Andre Ward dominated Carl Froch by using one hand and Froch has been bitter about it ever since, while Ward seemed to not care too much. Ward then got tired of Carl Froch's empty talk, came to UK to meet him face-to-face, inviting him to do so on Twitter, but Froch suddenly went into silent mode and pretended that Ward wasn't around. Froch was simply scared to meet the man he had been trashtalking for years, the man who beat him with one hand, it was straight up hilarious. Froch will forever be Ward's son.

                Broner's sonning of Malignaggi was absolutely brutal. He came to his town, stole his belt, stole his girlfriend, beat him in front of his fans and made him cry in front of the whole world "don't talk about my sidepiece!", I bet poor Paulie still has nightmares about the day Broner sonned him...

                So, come on, mention some of the greatest sonnings you have been a witness to.
                Shawn, me personally, the one fight that has always stood out as the sonning of all time; was Hopkins bs Pavlick! Not only did BHop son him in the ring, that sonning completely broke Pavlik for good. There’s a few more I’d like to mention but that’s my All Time Somning 🙃
                Honoral mention goes out to Loma sonning Walters and Rigondeaux

                    When Floyd made Canelo miss by a country mile, and then looked at the ropes, that was a moment. The humiliating part is that there was nothing the bigger guy could do to respond with his hands or his footwork.
