  • Can you recommend me some must-watch fights from the last decade?

    Okay well I've only started watching boxing recently so I don't know much about what's gone on in the last decade. But I wanna learn bit by bit. So can you all recommend me some must-watch fights from the last decade only (2000-2009)?

    I know there's a sticky thread called "Fights You Have To Watch" but it would be too long to go through it all. And I'm mainly just looking for fights of the last decade.

    Thank you in advance!

    Marco Barrera v Naseem Hamed
    Erik Morales v Marco Barrera (all 3)
    Manny Pacquiao v Erik Morales 1
    Oscar DLH v Fernando Vargas
    Fernando Vargas v Felix Trinidad
    Oscar DLH v Shane Mosley 2
    Floyd Mayweather v Diego Corrales
    Manny Pacquiao v Juan Manuel Marquez

    There were many great fights over the last decade. Pretty much everybody listed above, aside from Floyd, always put on an incredible show and any of their fights over the last 10 years are very good.

      Do not miss the third Israel Vazquez-Rafael Marquez bout, from 2008!

          The ring magazines fights of the year would be a good place to start!

          The Gatti-Ward fights are something special!

            Really thought the first Mosley-De La Hoya fight was the better spectacle, myself.

                That's a hell of a list...just add Marquez vs Diaz 1 and
                JMM vs Katsidis...

                  You want to see what's "right," pop in any Marquez fight and learn. Any fight since the Pacquiao fight and it'll probably be a war, too. Make sure you watch Gatti-Ward, Barrera-Morales, Mosley-De la Hoya, Coto-Margarito, Cotto-Mosley, etc. etc. If you just start with one fighter you like, watch his stuff then you'll find other guys you like who will have fought other fighters you'll like and soon enough, you'll be a historian. I've only been following boxing for about a year, but I like to think I learned quit a bit. All you have to do is watch boxing and that's not too bad, is it?

                    Mosley-De La **** 2 is boring, don't watch that, and the first one wasn't all that.

                    Castillo-Corrales 1
                    Cotto-Torres
                    Margarito-Cotto
                    Barrera-Morales 3, everybody has already mention the first, don't watch the second one.
