This is tough to beat,
"I just wanted to get out and go to the toilet," said former WBA welterweight champion Andrew "Six-Heads" Lewis after suddenly quiting midway through a bout he was winning on Saturday at the National Park in Georgetown, Guyana. Lewis was ahead on all three judges’ cards when he shockingly surrendered 37 seconds into round seven against Denny Dalton. Lewis later revealed to Stabroek Sport, "I preferred to lose the fight than mess up myself in front of all those people. Everyone saw that I was beating the hell out of Dalton. I was trying to hold in this stuff but in the seventh round I couldn't no more so I decided to quit." Lewis attributed his troubles to a milkshake he drank that afternoon. The Guyana Boxing Board of Control has withheld Lewis' purse pending an investigation. He is facing a possible fine or suspension.

~ Muhammad Ali ~
After getting his 'ass-whipped' and 'jaw-smashed' by Ken Norton.
"I didn't train properly."
"I took Norton too lightly."
"He was fighting for the U.S. Government."
"It was the West Coast air. I'm not used to that type of Pacific wind."

Not for losing... but still relevant...
~ Muhammad Ali - upon getting caught by Bill Paxtom reaming Bill's girlfriend and making her squeal like a stuck pig, resulting in $$ and years worth of psychiatric therapy for Billy ~
"Hey man... it's not my fault. She stripped down naked in front of me and said she wanted to be with a real man for once."
Guys claiming they were drugged, like Wlad after he got run over by Brewster.
Foreman had a ton of excuses for why he lost to Ali. He claimed someone gave him "medicine-tasting" water that drugged him and sapped his energy, and of course blamed how loose the ropes were on losing to Ali.
