Barring them answers and whatnot, are you just asking for close fights / close up until a stoppage and fights that someone was losing before knocking out his opponent ?.

[CubanGuyNYC]

So many. Others have already mentioned a few. Any real war fits the bill. A couple that come to mind are Holyfield-Qawi I and Holyfield-Dokes.

[BoxingOutlaw]

Holyfield Bowe 1.

[FredRekk]

JLC Mayweather 1.

Mayweather fought a good fight but ultimately lost to JLC.

Also, Serafim and Mayweather.
Again great effort by Floyd, but Serafim whooped that arse.
