Marco Antonio Barrera vs Agapito Sanchez (One of my favs, not sure if it's on YT)
Oscar De La Hoya vs Fernando Vargas
Jack Dempsey vs Jess Willard
Dempsey vs Carpentier
Hamed vs Kelly
Frazier vs Ali I

It really depends on what kind of fighters you like.

How about CARMEN BASILIO Vs TONY De MARCO II...... both were awesome but the second fight is spectacular,... it's a good place to start with,,,, no too old, a television coverage Like the Rocky Marciano Vs Jersey Joe Walcott I film......... then you can go further back.

Honestly I prefer to talk about current boxing than the past. But I couldn't handle sorting through all the garbage in NSB. I've been following the game for a long time now and can skate on my memory for recent times. The old stuff I used to study before there was an internet or even VCR's. Usually I pass on debates arguing about someone from 100 years ago fighting a recent or current boxer. I don't see the point and usually you can't prove anything by their records. I don't know if Ty Cobb would hit .400 now either.

I will add that reading this thread I've been impressed at how young some of the more talented contributors here are. There will always be guys who fight to make money. IMO, it's just as important to keep bringing in younger fans to put money into boxing and perpetuate the interest in it.

I agree.

I just can't believe how young some of the posters in this section are after reading this thread.

shittttttttttt you had me fooled!

I'm 20 in a week, only been watching the sport (as a real dedicated fan) since September of 2009 but I'm making up for lost time. I watch at least two fights a day. I'll be honest, I've talked outta my ass a few times, but most of the time I know pretty well what I'm talking about. I have a pretty decent sized library on my hard drive (only so much space though) and a lot more on youtube.
