15 most exciting of the last 25 years

[Steak]

Barkley was always in great fights....nice call! Who else ya got?

Was Fenech around in the last 25 years? never a dull moment with him in the ring.

I was gonna include him, actually, but I felt like most of his real wars were on a stage lower than the other guys. Oscar Larios and Jhonny Gonsalez don't really stack up against the others...although his best fights were easily the Marquez wars. So yeah, gotta include him...maybe take out Trinidad?

I talking about any fighter that was at least on tv. I got Scott Pemberton based on his 2 wars with Omar Shieka and 1 with Charles Brewer. If you haven't seen those fights, find them!

There is going to be so much dispute with everyones list because its so hard to just name 15! heres my attempt;

Alexis Arguello
Juan Manuel Marquez
Erik Morales
Marco Antonio Barrera
Arturo Gatti
Israel Vasquez
Rafael Marquez
Mike Tyson
Terry Norris
Emmanuel Augustus
Julio Cesar Chavez
Felix Trinidad
Roy Jones Jr
Ricky Hatton
Aaron Pryor

The end of his career was around 89 or 90 I think, so yeah. His last hurrah was against Phillip Holiday in the early 90's where he was easily beaten.But he was a truly exciting fighter too.

Throw Jeff Harding in the mix. I can't recall him ever being in a bad fight and his wars with Andries were epic!

Tyson - He lit up the sport and devasted a division, a force of nature

Gatti - Made Balboa look like a gutless punk

Prince Naz - From his trash talk to his ring walk, the impossible angles and bone crunching power he was true entertainment

Morales - A real fighter in every sense of the word

Corrales - A warrior with no quit in him and big punch power, his fight with JLC will never be forgotten

Trinidad - A Devastating puncher and finisher with vulnerabilitys

Juan Marquez - Always enjoyable but now known as a true warrior with genius punch combinations!

Shane Mosley - Fast Powerfull and always up for a fight

Nigel Benn - A BADASS! Animal

Vazquez - Tough nut who keeps swinging regardless

Cotto - Been in great fights, vulnerable brave and exciting

Barkley - Had the power and came to fight everytime

Holyfield - Warrior. He had some real brawls with the big guys

Katsidis - Big Heart and huge desire, never off his mans case, plus i love the way he punches

Raffy Marquez - Heart guts power and skills just like his brother. Took part in my favourite series of fights, against Vazquez

Technically you can add both Pryor and Arguello (two of the most exciting ever) but neither were as nearly exciting as they were before the 25 year cut.

I orginally thought you meant out of the fighters still active in the last 25 years who had the most exciting careers.

I realised after my post that you probably meant their actual fights during that 25 years.

So I just kept it on a technicality
