Shot Fighters Who Pulled Out a Win!

[SlimTrae]

Cory Spinks was 2-3 going in against DeAndre Lattimore and lost his last 2.
Lattimore went in at 19-1 riding an 8 fight win streak and his previous bout stopped Sechew Powell whose loss was to a red hot Kassim the Dream Ouma, turned around and beat Ishe Smith who was rising in status with a lone loss to Sergio Mora but he beat ESPN's then haymaker Randal Bailey.

So Lattimore was in good status going in against a faded reflexive fighter.
1st few rounds of Lattimore vs Spinks IMO had change of the guard written all over it. Cory's legs were gone, his timing off and seeing that he had little power this appeared to be a slow drubbing he would take.
But something happened mid way into the fight!!


Spinks seemed to accept fate that he had no mobility, so he set down on what shots he could and a nice fight broke out. Shot legs, shot reflexes forced Spinks to scrap his way to a victory

Simon Brown somehow beat and upset Terry Norris when he was way past his best. Brown lost the return.

Julius Francis who had lost to a number of domestic fighters as well as Vitali, Schulz and Mavrovic beat an undefeated Pele Reid and Danny Williams to get a pay day against Mike Tyson.

Larry Holmes on his last legs beat Ray Mercer.

That Larry should've asked for a rematch against Tyson. Bwahahahahahaha!

Pacquiao over Thurman has to rate....I mean no way is Pac anywhere near what he used to be after JMM laid him out.

Jesse James Leija over Francisco Panchito Bojado certainly ranks up there

Mike Weaver 15th Round KO clearly losing and then two left hooks and as Howard Cosell would have put it, "Done goes Tate."

Good thread, by shot are we talking greatly declined on the tail end of it regardless of opponent more than big underdog though. I'd say like a Edwin Rosario who had been written off more times than losing lotto stubs. He pulled out a come from behind KO over Anthony Jones for a 135 trinket..then gets absolutely battered in next out losing rematch to Juan Nazario. Barely beats a journeyman and looks slower and choppy, then a year later walks into Sacramento as the assumed 'name' doormat for streaking hometown 140 champion Loreto Garza and destroys Garza.

Holmes got a real title shot after that mercer win against Holyfield. Tyson was in jail so Larry probably could have beaten him at that point.

OK maybe Francis was not shot more shit but you know Pele knocked out Vitali in kick boxing which is his claim to fame.

​Pele was brilliant, people forget that and just think it's all about Messi and Ronaldo these days

Povetkin need I say more.!!!

Thomas Hearns V Virgil Hill.

I'm not sure Hearns was truly shot, but many considered him to be three years earlier when Barkley iced him & when he hung on for dear life against Kinchen, but he was most definitely way past his best & he had no right to completely outbox an accomplished fighter like Hill like that.

Come to think of it, he beat Leonard against the odds in '89, but got robbed enabling Leonard to keep his trinket.

Good call. Shot or past his best, he wasn't supposed to dominate in the fashion he did.
