Most one-sided by way of an entire distance has to be Holmes/Cobb. Early KO's are too many to list.

Arturo Gatti vs Terronn Millett got a lot of repeat viewings from me in my early days of Boxing fandom

Floyd Mayweather vs Phillip Ndou

That's a few that come to mind.

Frank Bruno v Chuck Gardner, I think even Harry Carpenter could've flattened Gardner that night.

Bernard Hopkins vs Felix "Tito" Trinidad. That is the night that Hopkins became an all-time pound per pound great.

Some of Prince Naseem's fights... and for very differing reasons.

1998 Atlantic City, Hamed v Wayne McCullough

Naz would always have the beating of McCullough at feather and Wayne was not prime.....

…….but the Irishman point-blank refused to go anywhere and makes Hamed do the distance, there would be no early 'showreel' blowout or posturing from Hamed and although outgunned Wayne inflicted a moral victory of sorts by refusing to be made look stupid and repeatedly keeping Hamed very honest. In defeat - a one-sided one - Wayne won.

2001 Las Vegas, Hamed v Barrera.

By this point the unbearably arrogant Hamed - so often disrespectful of opponents - was not much-loved even by his entourage. Barrera comprehensively deflated the ego with some brilliant tactical and technical boxing. A long overdue comeuppance for Naseem and more popular in the UK than one might think.

Didn't McCullough suffer a very serious brain bleed shortly after the Hamed fight? Not sure any sorta moral victory is worth all that.

That doesn’t sound right, if that had happened he wouldn’t have gone on to win a world title, more likely it was Augie Sanchez
