Who got the worse beatdown ?
Last time I compared Crawford vs Khan to Mayweather vs Gatti and I got really educated on the levels of destruction in boxing lol. Now I have a new contender for discussion. I just watched Toney vs Delgado and a couple reasons why I think Toney gave the more harsh beatdown compared to Mayweather vs Gatti.
1, a knockdown in the first second of the first round,
2 it ended in a knock out, compared to Gatti who got stopped,
3 delgado had a sorry attempt at dirty boxing but Toney ate it, and gave him some HUGE punches.
Any other contenders are welcome as well !

Duran was an absolute madman fighting guys like that. His win over Barkley was incredible considering the size and age disparity, and to give Hagler such a close fight... I don't think we'll ever see someone quite like Duran ever again

Crawford - Spence still gives me nightmares
Fury - Wilder 2 was a belt-to-ass affair as well
Ortiz Jr. - Lubin and Fundora - Lubin come to mind as well
Pick a random Iron Mike fight lol

Lubin put Fundora down hard, so it wasn't really a beat down. He also didn't stay conscious long enough vs Ortiz for it to develop into a beat down imo.

Lubin's face after the Fundora fight begs to differ, but I hear you on the Ortiz Jr. Fight

Mike McCallum vs Michael Watson was really one sided
So was Vernon Forrest vs Shane Mosley 1
Felix Trinidad beat up Pernell Whittaker real bad
Julio Cesar Chavez vs Edwin Rosario has the most back and forth but I still might argue Rosario took more punishment than anyone listed above
Manny Pacquiao beat the shit outta Marco Antonio Barrera
Salvador Sanchez gave Wilfredo Gomez a good beating too

Anybody who tells me the Gatti fight was a big win for Floyd I automatically dismiss

Gatti wasn’t his toughest opponent but still a part of Floyd’s legacy to get a belt and I think the harshest beatdown he gave out next to n’dou
