Hard to pick one, isn't it? He didn't really have one that blows you away. However, he a lot of very good ones. Dave Holly is a fighter that is almost forgotton now. He was one of the best that Gans beat.

WDQ5 Jimmy Britt really shouldn't be included. Britt beat the shit out of Gans until getting DQ'd for hitting Gans while down.
Griffo was pretty shot when Gans beat him too

Hmnn. Yeah I guess Im just putting the wins there by reading boxrec only and not beyond that. So I dont know the nitty witty of each win. But on record is still looks good. Like Montell Griffith's "win" over Roy Jones Jr. (and on the latter actually, Griffith was there with RJ until the end as far as I heard)

The win over Nelson was his most famous fought. He was winning that until Nelson was disqualified. It's too bad that DQs always put a damper on the fight.
