I remember a british fighter, Richard Evatt, giving Junior Jones a real battle back around 2000ish (presume it was a Naz undercard).
Evatt had him down twice before losing late on by getting kayoed himself (may even have been last round). He must have been ahead on cards too.
Sadly I read a couple of years ago that Evatt had died in a homeless shelter :-\
Wayne McCullough and In-jin Chi against Morales. Even though they clearly lost on the cards the fights were fantastic. Two complete and utter mentals that wont stop coming
Yeah it was a Naz undercard (Ingle) and I remember Sky had Evatt hacking up before getting chinned - it was the 11th round.Quote:

George Foreman vs Evander Holyfield....hard fight surprisingly difficult for Evander
Vitali Klitschko vs Lennox Lewis, all heart in that fight
Good call, Judah manned up vs Cotto.Quote:

Actually I scored Shane vs Miguel a draw, Cotto got on his bike the last round or two, I think.

Matthew Saad Muhhamad vs Yaqui Lopez
Lopez feels it's his last shot at a title, just a great effort, And Round 8, was round of the year. Great losing effort, he brought his ass to the table in this clip!!

Ken Norton IMO would never give a greater effort thann his first & only title defense. Back n forth action for 14 rounds...and then they both come out in round 15, like they had stamina to blow. No shame in the way Norton loss this fight.
Watch this one,

Have we had Meldrick Taylor v Chavez because he gave it his all.
Also Vargas v Tito, Fernando was never the same again.
if you are going to lose you go out on your shield.
I wouldn't put the Taylor fight because in theory he won. Just a miserable decsion on Steele's part. And he rightfully was removed from top level fights after that.Quote:

Chavez even stated post fight Meldrick was landing 3 to his 1. Yes Taylor pissed blood and yes he was battered, but 2 seconds?:eek:
