    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Alexis Arguello both when he won and lost. A true class act and compassionate man. I still have trouble with him offing himself.

    Haugen you mean. And he was one tough lil son of a bitch.

    Danny Williams showed amazing heart in a few of his fights, especially against that Potter fella when Williams threw out his shoulder dramatically.

    I'd add Corrie Sanders loss to Vitali as also quite heroic in defeat. Both him and Williams underestimated Vitali, came in like fat slobs and took horrible beatings.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    Kennedy McKinney scraping himself off the canvas numerous times vs Barrera. Its always one that comes first for me. Great night, great fighters and mutual courage. Robert Quiroga vs Borboa. This thread could run 30 pages
