floyd corrales Holyfield tyson

Nelson-Fenech rematch

rigo vs donaire jmm vs manny floyd vs corrales margs vs cotto shane vs margs holyfield vs tyson toney vs nunn roy vs toney spinks vs mayorga SRL vs duran 2 srl vs hearns srl vs hagler but the ultimate one is hopkins vs tito in MSG

Haye vs Mormeck Purity vs Klitschko Rigondeaux vs Casey Linares vs Diaz Linares vs Garcia Cote vs Lloyd Lebedev vs Maccarinelli Frenkel vs Maccarinelli Yes he said where the lion tamed the beast. Is a Harrison a beast? Is he? It's an expression you dumb ****, it means beating the home fighter. :pat:

If no one has said it yet, Hagler over Minter rules this thread.

Muhammad Ali vs George Foreman ( A real beast ) Pretty sure Foreman wasn't born in Zaire.

Judah vs Spinks II

Dmitry pirog-Daniel Jacob Vitali klitschko-tomasz adamek Vitali klitschko-cris arreola Steve Cunningham-marco huck Julio Caesar Gonzalez-dariusz michalczewski Virgil hill-Henry maske

Murray-Martinez That crowd was insane. Lets be honest here, the only reason Murray didn't get the decision because that crowd would of rioted and probably stormed the ring

Apologies...mainly a very Euro-centric list! Away from home fighter shown first. Schelming v Louis 1 Johansson v Patterson 1 Honeyghan v Curry Stracey v Napoles Mitchell v Lopez 2 McCall v Lewis Cerdan v Zale Williams v Tyson

Also Austin Trout/Cotto. Cotto was unbeaten in MSG and the crowd was like 80/20 if not more

I just checked my facts, It went the distance.

Danny Lopez vs Kotey. I believe it was a fifteenth round ko.

Casimiero/Larente (when they had a riot in Argentina)

Floyd mayweather - carlos baldomir

I did not read the opening post and replied right away :D here's my new list :D Israel Contreras vs Luisito Espinosa Manny Pacquaio vs Marco Antonio Barrera ( Texas ) Luisito Espinosa vs Alejandro Gonzalez Carlos Tamara vs Vrian Villoria Marvin Hagler vs Alan Minter ( some fans attacked team Hagler ) Johniel Casimiro vs Luis Lazarte ( fans attacked Casimiro :( )

Hopkins vs Trinidad and to a certain extent Rigo vs Donaire.

Hagler vs. Minter
