I'll start. Roy vs Montell 1. Before the stoppage round Roy was actually losing on at least one or two cards I belive. Thats pretty wild cuz that was as prime as Roy got and it was pretty deep into the fight
I know Roy would have won without the foul, but it was an interesting fight. Griffin's style gave Roy absolute fits. It was a very close fight at the time. Did anyone ever try and copy that blueprint?
Floyd was very dull and underwhelming in the Sosa fight. So much so, that I vividly remember a thread being started after that fight asking if Floyd could beat Tszyu, and like 90% of the forum said Tszyu would destroy Floyd. No one would say that in retrospect, but at that juncture, Floyd wasn't looking like no "TBE" in his career.
Yup and that was at his very peak. I think Lennox just like everyone else couldn't comprehand that skinny Croatian's chin..
A lot of people were saying Leonard was shot and looked tentative after his (early) stoppage win of Kevin Howard. I don't think he looked to bad personally
Hahaha I was so invested in this thread and Griffin's performance that I too forgot the actual result
Donaire vs Darchinyan II. Donaire, in his first fight since losing to Rigondeaux, looked mediocre and scared vs a smaller, past his prime Darchinyan, whom he had already anhilated when the later was in his prime. Managed to bail himself out strictly because of his amazing punching power.
I think Louis performance in his first Walcott fight was so bad Louis tried to run off before they announced the decision .
Floyd's Only GOOD Performance at '35 was N'Dou, Ironically...There was ZERO Indication of His Future Successes @ '40-54... REED
