    I was thinking about that one myself. An incredible one minute fight. The one thing that hurts it was that Holt basically won it with a headbutt.

        ^^^I would've said the first round of the first Pryor-Arguello fight, too.

            This is a bit of an unusual choice, because it was so one-sided, but to watch round twelve of Vazquez-Marquez III unfold as it happened was immensely enthralling viewing, knowing how close it was, & was going to be if it went the distance (no sure thing, as Marquez was rocking & rolling).

              Yeah it's a shame, I don't think they ever had a rematch did they?

                Could probably use 3 sub categories here:
                Historical
                Technical
                Pure excitement

                  There may've been a signing for one (going from memory, here), but no, the third fight never came off.

                  Have you watched their first fight? It is definitely one of the moe bizarre bouts I've seen in the last ten years or so. Controversy after controversy.

                    Yeah I saw it, I wish they did have a rematch thought, should have been good.
