Sometimes I am, but not right now. I watched Trinidad-Mayorga on drugs, and that was very fun.

Corrales-Castillo 1 is the greatest fight I've ever seen. Plus it helps that I saw it when it happened, and fights like Moore-Durelle I, FOTC, Manila, Saad-Johnson 1, etc...all happened before I was born. Different experience seeing it when it happens as opposed to seeing it after the fact. Which is why I somewhat (but not fully) understand how people rank Hagler-Hearns so highly, above fights I consider definitely superior.

i found Corrales vs Castillo a mediocre fight same as i did Ward v Gatti.... Mancini vs Kim would have been one of the great fights in history if not for the sad ending to the fight

Ali-Frazier I underrated?

Why did you find those 2 fights mediocre???

[bojangles1987]

It's one of, but I wouldn't call it the best.

I like Castillo-Corrales, Vazquez-Marquez 3, Holmes-Norton, Holyfield-Qawi, and a few other better. The Thrilla was amazing, but it played out in three dominant parts whereas as other fights were consistently back and forth.

Where did you buy the 2nd fight?

It was a few years ago; I'll try to find the site.

Funny that, I watch fights that are happening the same way I watch past fights: Completely dispassionately and in total silence (except for maybe the odd grumble of disgust when someone does something dumb).
