I liked it when Audley Harrison got KTFO for the first time. I believe it was by Sprott.
That made me happy at the time because Audley used to chat a whole load of sh1t.
I like him now he's so much more humble.
You beat me to it - watching Chino wreck Boner starting in the 1st round had me giggling all fight
On a purely self-interested basis, I bet heavily on Shane in the rematch w/ DLH (he was a 2-1 dog) and thought I had lost all my money. Lol.
When Morales turned southpaw on Pac for ****s and giggles and turned out victorious.
Foreman vs Moorer is the happiest I think ive ever been for a boxing match.
I was pretty stoked for Cotto beating Martinez but I really didnt like Martinez at the time. Ive come to like him since.
Jermain Taylor over B-Hop both times. It was the only fight that was personal for me, having hung out with Taylor a few times before and put on shows with his Uncle/Trainer Ozell Nelson.
I was also NOT a Hopkins fan at the time. I thought he got way too much credit for his reign at MW. Sure he held it down for a decade, but he fought manditories and refused to move to a higher/lower weightclass to take on other nearby elite fighters. (Now, I've learned to be a huge B-Hop fan).
I don't know why, but I was also almost offended by Bernard's 20 punches a round, throw-with-your-head technique. At the end of the first fight I remember thinking, Jermain didn't win... but Bernard definitely lost. While Jermain didn't "beat" Bernard... He at least showed up to fight. Bernard thought he could clinch to a victory. While clinching is a good tactic, it doesn't actually score any points. That first fight made me question just how much Hopkins knew about the sport he'd made his career. Clinching doesn't score points, and if you do too much of it, you can find yourself loosing points.
Anyway, second fight, Jermain clearly beat him.
Any fight where the opponent is hit so hard, he tries to knock himself out some more with the ring floor while struggling to get back up.
Honorable mention:
.
My happiest moment in boxing was Marquez knocking Pacquiao out cold. I'm not going to lie, I think that's got to be at the top 10 happiest moments of my life.
Agbeko schooling Darchinyan was another one.
I'm happy every time Mayweather wins because everyone in my family hates him.
Hopkins embarrassing Trinidad in front of his fans made me a real boxing fan and I've followed the sport avidly since.
The most recent? Martinez vs Chavez jr. TR created this big super star that couldn't hold to his own reputation for his life. The face off between the two made it worth the while aswell.

Just a couple that come to mind
Pavlik/Taylor-after HBO spent years hyping up Taylor, to see Pavlik dismantle him was pretty sweet. Especially after he almost threw it away by hotdogging.
Marquez knocking out Pac-especially with the stand after the sleepjob. He looked over at Pac like, "i killed you, it's over". Felt really happy for JMM.
