punching air with the action, going out of your mind, flipping out with excitement..........what fight made you respond like that? For me it was Toney/Jirov. I think that was one of the craziest conclusions to a fight with the action, crowd and announcing team going apeshit. I was doing all of the above. "HIT HIM! HIT HIM! FUCK!"....shit I was shouting like crazy.
Just a brilliant performance by James and a courageous performance by both men. I have never heard Manny Steward so animated.
Anyway, what fight(s) made you lose your marbles?
This fight had me yelling at my monitor, since I don't think it was aired on U.S. TV. and I almost never utter a sound watching anything
Michael Katsidis Vs. Graham Earl

If you haven't seen this, you simply must watch it. I won't give away the various surprises by mentioning what it was I yelled.
One of the best fights I've ever seen, at least in terms of pure drama.
This one really sold me on Katsidis...it was actually more entertaining than his win over Amonsot and his loss to Casamayor.
A great fight.

Diego Corrales v Jose Luis Castillo...
I'm quite sure people heard me down the fucking street all fight long LET ALONE the 10th round. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and when I saw Diego comeback and stun Jose I think I probably shrieked like a damn girl in happiness. BAR NONE the most electrifying fight I've ever witnessed. Nothing comes close.
Other than that Morales v Pacquio....the first fight I didn't want him to be stupid and get to cocky but that's Morales's way. The second I sat there with my nervous just hoping time would tick away and allow Morales to do what he did in the middle rounds but I saw the sand slip from the hourglass. The third? Just put my head in my hands in sorrow.
"Oh Shit. Fuck. He's not getting up."
4th round of Hatton KO4 Castillo
"Jab Oscar! FUCKING JAB!"
late rounds of Mayweather SD12 de la Hoya
"What the fuck are you doing, Winky!?"
12th round of Taylor D12 Wright
"No fucking way!"
Reaction to Casamayor SD12 Santa Cruz.
I think probably Marquez Pacqiao was the latest. I like Manny, but I really wanted that fight to go to Marquez, not that it was a robbery, but I was pretty pissed it didn't go my way. The fact I had 100 bucks on an upset was a factor...
The Taylor-Pavlik I fight I was at. I wasn't screaming at the tv. I was screaming at everyone seated around me. When Kelly got knocked down I hung my head in my chair and expected to go home shortly after. Then when he picked himself up and held on it was like I could breathe again. By the end of the 3rd, when he threw a couple solid bombs and won the round, I was going nuts. And when the 7th came round and Jermain wilted in the corner and Kelly came running toward the corner me and my friends were seated in, well I just flat out lost it and when ape shit, shaking my friend till I almost snapped his neck. I think the only comparable feeling I had to it was when I was at the last game of the World Series in 96 and the Yankees won. Where you just think to yourself, "Wow, I am really lucky to be alive and in this place at this time, because I just saw something extremely special." I was a huge Kelly fan going into that fight, now I think he could lose every single fight he has from here on out and I'd still be rooting for the guy all the way.
I remember the Peter/Maskaev fight for the heavyweight title. I remember rooting for Maskaev because he was the underdog and he was in the fight and almost put Peter on the ground a couple times then he was just was taking a beating for it seemed like a whole minute and I was yelling for Maskaev to finish the round "GO, COME ON" then with like 9 seconds left the ref called it. But that actually was a pretty good and under rated fight.
For me it was Bert Cooper vs Moorer
Man oh man what a fight. Best Heavyweight fight ever people!! I was praying for Bert to pull it out as he was always one of my favs.
Lopez-Ponce De Leon had me in absolute shock. I had never seen Lopez, and I knew that he had never stepped up in his career to a world class fighter.
A lot of people were on here talking about Ponce KO Lopez... too green, etc.
And then he fucked him up in one round.
I was not really yelling, but I was talking very confusedly... like "What the fuck is going on? Holy shit, he's hurt! OH MY GOD, WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED?!?"
Yeah and Ponce was starting to jump on Lopez and I was like "Lopez is going to be out of his league?" Then obviously not...

Pavlik-Taylor I.
I was screaming at the TV in panic when Taylor took that first right hand that made him back up into the ropes... where he got ultimately KO'd.
Same here. Taylor had me upset in that fight. That fight is what really made me a fan of Pavlik.
I wasn't jumping for joy but i was screaming for Dawson to box Johnson instead of fighting on the inside and getting hurt.
I recently got pissed off when I heard the bullshit decision for Dawson/Johnson....116-112 3 times for Dawson.....I shouted.... "motherfuckin cocksucker"....."what a fuckin joke".
Another one I yelled out. I couldn't believe it. That fight should have been atleast a draw.
And another obvious one I yelled out on....first time I saw Corrales vs Castillo the full way through. Watched it with my friend and we were yelling the whole time.
Joe Calzaghe vs Jeff Lacy we saw also and that was a pure beating. I had heard about it and thought "Wow must have been bad", but when I saw it I never thought it was going to be THAT bad.
Same with Mayweather Gatti

Pavlik-Taylor I.

Yeah. I also yelled during Vargas vs Mayorga when Vargas first went down.
When Bernard knoced down Joe and Mayweather knocked out Hatton I went crazy haha. Mayweather knocking out hatton was incredible imo haha. I stayed up till like 4 am afterwards talking on here.
edit: Oh robbery wise...I went batshit over Santa Cruz-Casamayor. I couldn't believe it....
And then when I heard Doug Tucker's fucking score of 120-108 against Mijares I thought they were going to rob him.
Pavlik-Taylor I.
