What is the greatest boxing performance you have ever seen?

[Fox McCloud]

What is the performance you think back on that made you say "WOW" about a guy? I mean a boxing performance where the guy fought a perfect fight or looked like he couldn't do anything wrong in the ring that night.

That fight probably made the experts or boxing public take notice.

Please exclude one-punch KO's.

Some recent examples:

Winky Wright shutting out Trinidad.

Joe Calzaghe dominating Lacy

Mayweather brutalizing Gatti

Mayweather embarrassing Corrales

Wow, when I saw the title of the thread, the first three matches that came to mind were Mayweather-Gatti, Calzaghe-Lacy and Wright-Trinidad. That's pretty crazy.

Hopkins-Trinidad also comes to mind, considering Trinidad was invincible in the eyes of the public.

Allan Green beating the **** out of Jaidon Codrington (it wasn't a one-punch knockout).

Ricardo Mayorga getting a decision against Vernon Forrest... he took all the punches, he stayed compised, didn't get too wild, and I thought won the fight.

Pernell Whitaker vs Azumah Nelson

Pernell Whitaker vs Jose Louis Ramirez

I didnt say wow, I think I cried... Tyson was a GOD to me then

I KNOW I cried.

.

It essentially was. The Don never saw anything after that left hook. The fight was over with that punch.

I don't know why people think Jaidon has a suspect chin because of that fight when it is obvious it was a hook to the temple that put him on the *****est of streets.

I really thought Jones had murdered Ruiz in the ring when it came to pure boxing during that match, but what tops my list would have to be...

I'm actually not sure because i've seen so many good performances..

I take back what I said about not knowing.

This fight tops the list and I just watched it like a week ago but i still watch it a great amount of time.

When Hatton beat Tszyu I was like DAMN. But he's lost a lot of that hype lately.

Pacman beating Barrera down was a big one also.

Most people had Hatton 105 - 104

Whitaker put on a clinic of great boxing performances. The best pure boxer of the modern era IMO.

Ali beating Williams...that was probably Ali at his very best...a bit like Mayweather being at his very best against Gatti. However, Gatti was tailor made for Mayweather and the result was a given when the contracts were signed.
