Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I think that a big disapointment was Buster Douglas' first fight after Tyson when people realized he was a one and done.
I also nominate every heavyweight fight in the last ten years.
And can you count the entire aftermath of Castillo-Corrales 1?
For me personally it was Margarito Mosley because the disappointment started before the fight. The new welterweight champ was barely in the fight that was his showcase. And a hero becomes a pariah and herpe on the sport.

If you're blindly nominating "every heavyweight fight in the past 10 years" you're a moron. Yeah the good fights are few and far between but Lewis-Vitali was a heck of a fight and Brewster-Lyakhovich was great! But yes Byrd-Williamson, Ruiz-Oquendo, etc seem to be more the norm.
I'd say Hatton vs. Castillo was very disapointing. Castillo pretty much just showed up for a payday.
Also Hatton vs. Pacquaio was just terrible. I was rooting for Hatton and really expected him to use his size advantage to impose himself on Pac man, instead he got KO'd in 2 rounds brutally.
Also yesterday's little Heavyweight showdown was pretty fuckin disapointing to watch.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
Lewis-Vitali was inconclusive and there was no rematch. That's textbook disapointment.
The last ten years of heavyweights has been a disapointment.
