Jones Jr. vs. Toney springs to mind.
Floyd won 116-112 in my opinion, never hurt or tried to finish his opponent.
I will say that I had hoped for and expected a more competitive fight.

Re: Has there ever been a more dominant performance ?
Jones v Hopkins could be mentioned in hindsight.
Oscar v Chavez?

Good call on Toney/Jones. If you added it all up, I don't think Toney won 60 seconds of that fight.Originally Posted by Hulk

Barrera Vs. Hamed. Giving away points for the sake of humiliating your opponent with a half nelson and ramming him into the corner pad. Epic...
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Re: Has there ever been a more dominant performance ?
The most dominant performance against an all-time great in his peak was Foreman's obliteration of Frazier in 1973. Granted, Ali was the best of that generation. But Frazier had beaten Ali and was undefeated (as was Foreman). And both fighters were in their red-hot primes. In contrast, PacMan is decidedly past his prime and Mayweaher is at the tail end of it.

I agree with all of you!
Floyd was dominate, but absolutely not the most dominant performance in big fights.
Fact! As Fenster would say. Lol

Re: Has there ever been a more dominant performance ?
BHop over Tito was much more dominant than Floyd vs Manny. Floyd deserved the win, but he never really hurt or beat Manny up, he just shut Manny's offense down with his defense. I love the skill portion of the sport, but I wasn't overly excited or impressed by the way Floyd fought that one. Credit him for the clear win over his top threat though...
Just a dude in blue.

Re: Has there ever been a more dominant performance ?
Dominant and greatest are two terms that become blurred real fast. But the first one I thought of was Whitaker vs A. Nelson. Both top in respected divisions, both p4p top ten. Hated everything about that fight as it unfolded and Whitakers clowny bs, but he was a shadow to hit in there. Monzon v Napoles deserves mention. Tszyu v Judah...chicken dance anyone
