[K-DOGG]

Well, if we're talking social historical significance:

1. Louis-Schmeling II.....global implications
2. Frazier-Ali I..........social implications
3. Johnson-Jeffries.......racial implications
4. Corbett-Sullivan.......Marquis de Queensbury Rules
5. Douglas-Tyson..........Greatest upset in boxing history


Now, if you're talking just pure entertainment...

Heavyweight:

1. Ali-Frazier III
2. Holmes-Norton
3. Bowe-Holyfield I
4. Marciano-Walcott I
5. Louis-Conn I


Pound-4-Pound:


1. Hagler-Hearns
2. Zale-Graziano....pick one
3. Corrales-Castillo I
4. Leonard-Hearns I
5. Moore-Durelle


At least, those are my picks.

1. Bobby Chacon vs Bazooka Limon ( 1982)
2. Barrera vs Morales 1 ( 2000)
3. Castillo vs Corrales 1 ( 2005)

I can't list only 5

I've been a boxing fan for close to 40 years and I've seen a lot of fights, mostly on TV here in the U.S. or else older fights on tape or over the internet. Here are some fights that I saw that did credit to the sport; close, clean, hard-fought battles between world class fighters:

Trinidad-De La Hoya
Pernell Whitaker-De La Hoya
Julio Cesar Chavez-Meldrick Taylor
Julio Cesar Chavez-Frankie Randall 1
Marlon Starling-Donald Curry 1 and 2
Simon Brown-Tyrone Trice 1 and 2
Marciano-Walcott
Ali-Frazier 1
Holyfield-Bowe 1
Holmes-Ken Norton
Holmes-Witherspoon
Foreman-Ron Lyle
Frazier-Quarry 1
Matthew Saad Muhammad-Marvin Johnson
McCallum-McCrory
McCallum-Toney 1
Castillo-Corrales 1
Hagler-Mugabi
Hagler-Antuofermo 1
Duran-Leonard 1
Benitez-Leonard
Hearns-Leonard 1

Of course there are many more. How am I supposed to pick only 5 of these? If you've never seen some of these you missed some great fights.
