i honestly agree with 2007 as my number one as well. at least as far as i've witnessed, i'm not that old.

1983 was freakin awsome

Hagler fought Cuevas, Moore, AND Hagler in that order.

Larry Holmes wins Heavyweight championship over Tim Witherspoon.

Chacon vs Boza-Edwards took place, which is one of the best fights ive seen i loved it.

ummm... Julio Cesar Chavez started his career... lots of other stuff too
