Fighters Whose Biggest Moment Was a Loss
What fighters can you think of whose arguably biggest claim to fame was a fight in which they came out the losing end? Of course you think of Chuck Wepner losing to Ali, and more recently Vargas in the Trinidad fight and Vitaly in the Lennox fight. Is there anyone else whose stock went up after a loss?

Richardo Torres comes to mind. He got a lot of props for the way he fought in his loss to Cotto.

I suppose the two biggest ever are Foreman losing to Ali and Schmeling losing to Louis in their rematch.

Re: Fighters Whose Biggest Moment Was a Loss
I agree with most of those except DLH losing to Mosely wasn't his biggest moment. It would probably be either his loss to Felix or his wins vs. Quartey and Vargas. With Hopkins, his biggest moment was beating Trinidad.

Re: Fighters Whose Biggest Moment Was a Loss
Your right an argument can be made it could also be the Tito loss like you pointed it out. 'Tho I don't think his win over Ike or Vargas are in his biggest momentsI agree with most of those except DLH losing to Mosely wasn't his biggest moment. It would probably be either his loss to Felix or his wins vs. Quartey and Vargas. With Hopkins, his biggest moment was beating Trinidad.
