What moments in boxing that you witnessed live (on TV or in-person) will you remember DECADES from now and still talk about in the future? Or moments in boxing that shocked you while you were watching?

For me (off the top of my head):

-Holyfield knocking Tyson out was something I didn't realize how big it actually was until I REALLY became a boxing fan and remembered me actually seeing that fight.

-Pacquiao dominating Barrera in their first fight. I remember cheering for Manny while actually not believing he was going to win. Proved me wrong.

-Hatton bumping his head on the ringpost. I was actually pulling for Hatton against Mayweather but you couldn't help but laugh.

-Tarver's second round KO of Jones. I think it was somewhat of a lucky punch but I never thought Jones would get caught with one of those. Then Roy's next fight he gets knocked out cold by Johnson. I was sitting there thinking, "WOW! The end of an era..."

Tyson - Spinks - Absolutely and totally crushed.

Douglas - Tyson - Who'd have thunk it ?

Ali - Foreman - Speaks for itself.

my first one has to be when tito got kod by BHOP that was classic but i was still a tito fan but a major bhop fan after that.

2nd would have to be roy losing to tarver by that lucky ass punch.

3rd bhop knocking out oscar from a body shot. and all my uncles thought he was gonna win. HAH plzzzzzzzzz

4th kelly knockin out taylor was pretty crazy for me i actually though taylor was gonna win until BOOM big right hand landed flush.

5th and most recently cotto gettin beat up by tony.

i have alot more i just cant name them all right now

Marvin Hagler slugging Tommy Hearns inside 3 , great fight , but i have to say , thanks alot Marvin !

Also Holfield Tyson was just fantastic.

Duran outslugging Iran Barkley was special to.

Lately...

The site of a bloody Cotto on the ground kneeling...

Partly because I just never thought I would see Cotto like that, and Partly because at that point I just realised how much of a destroyer Margarito is.

Corrie Sanders knocking out Wladimir Klitschko That was dramatic and unexpected.

Mayweather-Judah melee during their fight.

Tyson-Holyfield Tyson getting knocked out in the first fight and the ear bite in the second.

Roy getting knocked out in two by Tarver.

Douglas beating tyson was a big one for me

Douglas Tyson will allways rank high
Im in a bar in NYC called Mona's
Im not even really watching, because Douglas was a last minute patsie and everybody knew it.
And suddenly the entire joint started getting very loud,I turn around to look at the TV just in time to see it happen.
Theres the boogeyman, trying to figure out what planet he's on,the place erupted.

Absolute
Tyson had become more myth then person at that point, and everybody who followed the sport,knew Douglas was a last minute replacement. It was only supposed to be a tune up bout.
Apparently nobody told Buster that night.
You really found yourself saying,"Did that just happen, or did they spike my beer"

Yeah the Tyson loss was a proper shocker...especially to me, i thought the guy was pretty much invincible.

Chavez stopping Taylor is unforgettable shocker stuff.

Jean Pascal standing up to confront Miranda and then backing away slowly.

Donaire taking out Darchinyan.

After watching 6 rounds of my favorite fighter, having the most perfect fight of his life, and then getting caught with a liver shot (Gonzalez vs. Penalosa).

Oh man! That must've been a bad "WTF!" moment. Gonzalez could not have fought a better fight up until the body shot...

when oliver mcall had a nervous breakdown in the ring against lenox lewis i will never forget that.
lewis looked weirded out lol
