Thread: Boxers who loose but look better than before

Are there any boxers out there you saw loose against a big name but eventhough they lost you think they looked better than before and look forward to see them fight again?

I thought about this after seeing Hatton loose against Mayweather. Sure, ok ok ok, he lost, I know I know but still, I think he didn't look THAT bad as many thought considering he was also going up in weight. Hatton won a fan right here .

Rafael Marquez and Israel Vazquez both looked great in the fights they lost to each other. And Jermain Taylor looked the best he's ever looked in losing to Pavlik

Andrade won me even more as a fan after fighting Kessler, and Kessler made me want to watch him more after his loss to Calzaghe. Miranda showed alot of gameness when he fought Pavlik, so I look forward to seeing more of him. I didn't like Codrington, but he showed some game against Bika.

Azumah Nelson Vs. Salvador Sanchez

Malignaggi v Cotto.

Totally! Rafael Marquez and Isarel Vazquez looked great even though they lost. You see them loose and still expect them to give a great fight whoever they face.

Tho I know this one wont happen but I was very impressed with Czars performance and was hoping I'd get to see him again.
This ones from that same card Medina who lost to Bautista.

Letterlough after loosing to Julio I wanted to see him again.
Clottey after loosing to Margarito.

I couldn't get Hatton since he's committed to you. Does his neck still hurt from hitting the ring post? I hear your still massaging it nightly. His neck and other things that is.

Kostya Tszyu came back to be a monster after Vince Philips.

Junior Witter is twice the fighter he was after he lost to Zab.

Sakio Bika earned respect in Losing to Joey C.

Kassim Ouma earned it too by surviving vs. JT.

I cannot believe I'm the first to mention Jermain taylor. He looked better in his loss to Pavlik than he has in his 4 previous fights.

Azumah Nelson vs Salvador Sanchez
Evander Holyfield vs Riddick Bowe 1
MAB vs Morales 1
Pernell Whitaker vs Jose Luis Ramirez 1
Ike Quartey vs Oscar De La Hoya
Meldrick Taylor vs Julio Cesar Chavez 1
Tim Witherspoon vs Larry Holmes
Nigel Benn vs Chris Eubank 1
Jermain Taylor vs Kelly Pavlik
Winky Wright vs Fernando Vargas
Iran Barkley vs Roberto Duran
Thomas Hearns vs Sugar Ray Leonard 1
Antonio Margarito vs Paul Williams
Jesus Chavez vs Floyd Mayweather Jr
Ruben Castillo vs Salvador Sanchez
Lupe Pintor vs Wilfredo Gomez
Kennedy McKinney vs MAB
Carl Williams vs Larry Holmes
Manny Pacquiao vs Erik Morales 1
Ruben Olivares vs Alexis Arguello

Barrera Vs Morales 1

I did not think Barrera was a elite boxer until he made his name against Morales, his career sky rocketed after that
