Good list. Off the top of my head...

Billy Collins/Resto - Resto beat him with rigged gloves for 10 rounds and Collins fought they whole way through, given the circumstances thats probably one of the biggest displays of heart I've ever seen.

Ray Mercer/Wlad - Ray kept walking through a ton of heavy artillery from Wlad.

Arturo Gatti/Mayweather - 6 of the most one sided rounds you'll ever see, still wanted to continue.

Richard Hall/Roy Jones - Richard Hall took more brutal, power punches to the head than anyone I've ever seen, never even came close to winning a round and was pissed when they stopped it.

Ricky Hatton v Floyd Mayweather.

Kept coming and was in Mayweather's face all night, even with a one sided ref and the point deduction, never gave up. Great heart and courage shown.

One sided ref? How exactly? Because he had to keep Hatton from trying to have sex with and rabbit punch Mayweather all night? Maybe it's a nationalist thing with the guys here that are from the U.K., but this man love you guys have towards Hatton really gets on my nerves.

I don't think Cortez necessarily did anything wrong, but I have to say that performance was inconsistant in relation to the JC - B-hop fight where B-Hop clearly wanted to play Hide the sausage with Calzaghre and got away with it all night. Fact is PBF would've beaten Hatton if Hatton's dad was the ref

Listen here you little cry baby, I don't feel like watching rabbit punches and hugging for the next 20-30 minutes before Mayweather puts him on his ass.

It's time to come to terms with reality: Your boy got his ass whipped, in embarassing fashion, while fighting dirty.

I know it hurts to have someone tell you that, but it's the truth whether you choose to accept it or not.
