Recommend me an underrated fight from the 80's

[ИATAS]

Since Pavlik pulled out, I need to watch some boxing, something I haven't seen before. I want to go back to the 80's.

None of the obvious fights - hagler/hearns, leonard, etc.

Maybe an awesome war that kinda was forgotten about because they were overshadowed by the big time stars.

Thanks! never seen that. 1-10, how do you rate it as far as entertainment goes?

8 or a 9, it's a real corker!

Here is a piece that Lee Groves wrote about the fight, calling it a closet classic...
