    Let's try the reverse. I'll start off with:

    Dawson UD Adamek. Besides the KD a complete domination by Dawson. Good win at the time, BETTER win considering Adamek turned out to be a pretty good fighter.

    Another one would be Tua KO 19 seconds John Ruiz. Especially considering Ruiz ended up accomplishing a lot more Tua ever did

    Greater considering Pacquiao's march through the higher weights.

    Not a "great" win in hindsight, but the manner of the victory was very impressive in hindsight
