    In a fight that came some time after the Pryor fights, Alexis Arguello was being dominated by Billy Costello in a JW bout, until a single straight right put Costello on his ass and effectively ended the fight.

    Another one like that was Gene "Mad Dog" Hatcher's left hook against Johnny Bumphus. Until that point he was being boxed silly.

    Marciano Walcott 1 - Walcott was winning until the Rock let loose a bomb and knocked him unconcious...

    I havent seen the whole fight but from what I understand Walcott was winning until round 13 and had Marciano down a couple times during the fight...

    If anyone hasnt seen the highlights you should check out on youtube....

    Not a big fight, but I remember Michael Sprott putting Audley Harrison to sleep in a fight that he was looking abysmal in

    Yeah it was amazing, like something out of a movie. Thing i can never understand is how Peden then managed to win the rematch as well. Nate was always the better fighter, and has proven it since.

    Was this the silly a** move, where a clowing Nate Campbell, intentionally stuck his neck out?

    If it was, it wasn't a lucky punch, mind you, the target needed nobody's luck to get hit!

    Foolish Nate, needed to learn a lesson. Humility 101!

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

    In Boxing the whole point is to hit your opponent. So how can any punch be considered lucky? If that's what a fighter is trying to do.

    But to help you with your thread. Mike Tyson-Francis Botha

    Sort of.

    It was 'lucky' but it wasn't a fluke if you get what I mean
