Losses I took hard as a kid....
Tyson/Douglas - this one is obvious. Nobody wanted to see the baddest man on the planet take that 1st L.
Chavez/Taylor - fukking Richard Steele. I tell ya smh... He ruined a fight, life, and a career that night. Great fight, sour bite to end the meal though.
Losses I took hard as a teen....
Zab/Kostya - big Zab fan and his run going into this fight was good, but that loss hit me hard cuz me an my friends all watched it and were shocked/disappointed at the same time.
S. Mitchell/Kostya 1 & 2- Yeah, you can prolly guess that I can't stand Tzyu. Dude fought rough ass hell the 1st fight and then KO'ed him brutally the 2nd time.
Hamed/MAB- I knew the Prince was past it, but I didn't think he'd still lose 8-9 rounds against Marco.
Losses I took hard as an adult.....
Ward/Dawson - Big Dawson fan, never liked this fight and the thought of moving down in weight for a supposed super fight. Always thought Chad had the tools to test Andre, but we'll never know for sure since he cheated himself of a proper effort by accepting that fight. Dude's career hit a downward spiral after that and now he's losing to generic AmeriCAC's in his hometown.
One thing that time has taught me is that everyone gets their come uppings. Everybody on this list that took the W ended up taking a much worse L later on. Ward will eventually get his too and when he does.
but for now I'll give him his respect even though I think he's overrated, but that's for another topic.
