.....For Broner

Pretending to bum Maidana early on in their fight. Since that moment it's all gone downhill for the boy

Any other examples of a fighters career going tits up after a bad decision on their part?

Diego Corrales thought...'hey, what harm can a few drinks do?' and got on his motorbike...

don't show the backside at money may.

Harsh but he was a hard core dude.

Larry "war machine" when he stopped taking PED's. Not won a fight since

Leon Spinks - Not his fault as such, but the moment that he got the decision in the first Ali fight!

That was never supposed to happen & he could not handle the fame & fortune & his career was derailed massively because of that.

They should make a film about his life.

He was a hardcore asshole.

Edwin Valero. When he killed his wife

Yusuf Mack when he took a sip of that drink in a house full of bulking strangers

Riddick Bowe when he put his hand down the back of the sofa and pulled out a mammoth booklet of Burger King vouchers.

Kid Gallahad when he let his brother brew up

Me yesterday, when I went for a "quick" pint.

When McGuigan went against Barney Eastwood's choice of opponent Wilfredo Gomez in New York, and instead fought Steve Cruz in the searing desert heat of Nevada

Kell Brook when he went back to some random dude's flat for a few cheeky lines.

Roy Jones when he dropped back down to LHW

Definitely: It would make for interesting viewing.

When Naz left Brenden Ingle and the Wincobank gym environment.

Groves demanding a rematch with Froch.

Groves's career hasn't gone tits up at all...the Froch fights helped his profile if anything.

And his bank balance

When Manny agreed to fight Horn at Brisbane and didn't take it seriously.

Ohara Davis thinking he could throw his defence out the window and attack Taylor recklessly like the last few easy beats he was up against.

Tom Dallas when he took that fight with Price at short notice, I thought Dallas was a bit of a dark horse going into that fight

Ohara for signing for that fight.

He had to step up in the UK before going to EU level. I thought it was about the right time. It was sheer carelessness and overconfidence that led to his undoing. He could have won that fight on the outside, as everyone expected him to.
And that's coming from a Tartan Terror fan (me )
