    People call Micky Ward a bum yet he had THREE STRAIGHT Ring Magazine Fight of the Year awards (Burton, Gatti, Gatti): 2001, 2002, and 2003. Gatti has been on the list four times (Ruelas, Robinson, Ward twice).

      MAB/Morales has to be done because not only were two of the fights very entertaining, but they were significant as well. Both fighters are hall of famers and legands in Mexico.

              Yeah Trinidad-Hopkins would be nice. I don't know if Tyson-Holyfield was on HBO or Showtime.

                  you never even saw the fights therefore you have no idea what you're talking about. so just shut up. you have no place in this conversation.

                    dont know if this is hbo but Ron Lyle vs Foreman was pretty legendary
                    Shavers - Lyle
                    Ali - Foreman
                    Kostya Tszyu - Zab Judah only because it was such a good day for me, but im guessing its a showtime fight
                    Benn - McClellan

                      God, I thought I was the only one who thought this way.

                      Unfortunetly Boxingscene has it's fair share of internet tough guys and posters who call world-class fighters "bums" while never having been in the ring a day in their lives.
