    Default Bravest Losing Effort From A British Fighter.

    Pat Cowdell vs Salvador Sanchez
    Jim McDonnell vs Azumah Nelson

    Are the first two that come to mind considering the opposition they were up against, what heart from both men.

    I'm not overly familiar with British fighters, so some may roll their eyes at this, but I thought Hatton gave a brave performance vs. PBF. He was obviously frusterated, getting tattoo'd with hard punches, but he kept coming until the fight was stopped.

    CFH you have to see the 2 fights i mentioned above they were great fights, especially the Nelson vs McDonnell one which was a war, if you want any of those fights send me a PM.

    I remember watching Paul Hodgkinson fight twice against an opponent I can't remember.He was winning in hard fights but had both his eyes closed. Was virtually blind in both eyes but still didn't want the ref to stop it. That kid had guts.

    Michael Watson against Eubank II. Watson fought at the pace of a featherweight for 11 rounds and almost sacrificed his life when Eubank landed possibly the most beautiful, deperate, perfect and devestaing uppercut I have ever seen.

    Michael Watson looked inhuman for 11 rounds, he truly fought an amazing fight and so did Chris Eubank. Possibly the best Super Middleweight fight ever, the extra weight help both fighters who were drained in the 1st fight. I think Michael Watson was better than Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, Steve Collins.

    Hodkinson fought Marcos Villasana in 2 WBC , feathweight fights , losing the first by stoppage , winning the second on points.
