If you were to introduce somebody to boxing, which fights would you show first?

Jacobs v Rosado Wlad v Povetkin Haye v Harrison Floyd v Baldomir Gavin McDonnell’s entire career

Morales vs Pacquaio 1 and 2

1986 to 1989 Mike Tyson Knock outs

Chavez vs Taylor Toney vs Jirov Pacquiao vs Dela Hoya Ali vs Foreman Maidana vs Khan

Ive shown my friends: Leonard-hearns 1 Barrera-Morales 1 Chico-Castillo 1 Mayorga in his prime just to add a little flavor lol My best friend is more than a casual fan because of me but he is far from hardcore.. Boxing isnt for everybody

Depends on the person. You would show different people different fights

floyd vs baldomir, to show people that anything is possible. everyone though the ww champ would crush floyd and floyd was like "hold my roids, ill show you how its done!" and he overcame the odds and inspired a generation

Barrera - Morales 1 // Toney - Jirov // Ibeabuchi - Tua

froch - taylor paul williams - margarito JMM vs katsidis show castillo vs corrales round 10 first.

Floyd vs Gatti Hearns vs Hagler (no one mentioned this??) Ali vs Frazier 3

Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manual Marquez - all the fights. Yeah, the whole saga is spectacular. Probably top 3 series of boxing. Ever.

Bradley Provodnikov is a dope watch

If it is someone who really knows absolutely nothing about boxing I'd take a very different approach. People are at their most invested in a sporting match when they know one of the competitors. They probably won't know people like Naz, or Gatti or Hagler or perhaps even Pacquiao. They probably know Tyson, but Tyson's fights were either uncompetitive blowouts, boring clinchfests by survivalists, or he lost. You need someone who is both recognizable and has some sort of cultural lore. Everybody knows Ali. So I would pick an Ali fight. Everybody has heard the phrase "Rumble in the Jungle" or "Rope a Dope" but not everybody knows the full lore around Ali-Foreman. It's like "Luke I am your father" to someone who hadn't seen any Star Wars movies yet. They know the term, but have no context yet. That makes Rumble perfect for a boxing newbie. It's a dramatic fight, with dramatic commentary that places Ali squarely as the underdog, it is the origin of a couple of popular cultural phrases in most English speaking countries, and it features the greatest triumph of perhaps the most recognizable face in all of sports. Ali-Foreman. No contest.

Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manual Marquez - all the fights.

Cotto vs. Torres Froch vs. Groves 1 Holyfield vs. Bowe 1 One that I forgot: Rios/Alvarado 1

Recent fights make far more sense, preferably with knock outs included! I would go for uk stars obviously given people I would talk to more likely British! Joshua vs Klitschko Taylor vs Persoon. 2 And one slightly older one.. Froch vs Taylor

Jermain Taylor vs Kelly Pavlik Sergio Martinez vs Paul William 2 Sergio Martinez vs JCC Jr Margarito vs Cotto

All The young Mike Tyson fights.

mayweather - logan paul
