Fights Everyone thought would end in KO but didn't

[Tony1244]

Virtually everyone predicted a KO in the Wilder-Stiverne fight. I know I did.

Please name other fights you "knew" would be a KO but went the distance.

Besides Wilder-Stiverne:

Tyson vs. Bonecrusher Smith and

Hagler vs. Duran come to mind. I was "sure" there would be a KO in those.


Anyone have any others?

[Lackeos]

Mitchell - Banks 2 comes to mind

[benion]

Provo-Bradley after the first round
Provo-Algeieri after the first round
Pac-Algeiri before the fight
Garcia-Matthysse before the fight
Canelo-Angulo before and during the fight
Tua-Lewis,Ibeabuchi, and Rahman

[sucracristo]

Tua-Lewis

tua was made of concrete

foreman-morrison
azumah nelson-jeff fenech 1 i thought HAD to end early, either way
bowe-holyfield 1 (thought bowe was going to take him out and nobody else in
the room even gave bowe a chance to win it)
holmes v mercer and holyfield (holmes well into his 40's but still truckin)
tyson-tucker
lewis-tucker (yes, i was wrong about what tucker had, and he could have been better than he was)
toney-griffin (both times)
mccallum-collins (collins only had 16 fights i think and was taking a huge step up)
holyfield-ruiz
camacho v rosario, chavez, DLH (wishful thinking, heard camacho showed up at chavez's
victory party that night and was dancing with all the women after that beating)
rios-alvarado II
bramble-mancini II
breland-starling II
curry-jaquot

Foreman-Morrison absolutely! How did that one go the distance? Also Ike-Tua, as someone alluded to.

Hagler vs Duran
Tyson vs Ruddock 2

For me....

I thought Kevin Mitchell would get stopped by John Murray but it proved to be the other way round. I also thought Vitali K would knockout Shannon Briggs and Dereck Chisora but he didn't, although Briggs should have been pulled out. And I fought Angulo had a chance of putting Erislandy Lara over.
