Though, not a TECHNICAL fight by any means.. Gatti/Ward II was a GREAT fight and no one was KD. So, **** off.how come every year the fight of the year is a fight where there is a toe to toe war and alot of knockdowns??? has there ever been a boxing match between two slick fighters where there was no knockdowns?? NO!!!!
no one remembers the technical boxing matches because there boring. no one remembers any fights of willie pep because he is a boring fighter. gatti is a bum but he is a true warrior and he will be remembered for the great action fights. cory spinks is a better fighter than gatti but no one will remember him because he had pillows for fists and he ran like a coward. boxing is all about the knockouts and the fans on boxing scene should respect the true warriors who may not have the best record or the most belts but they are peoples champions giving the fans excitement and knockouts.

U cant appreciate or it seems understand (willie pep was boring?) the art of defencive boxing.
I, like many boxing fans respect and enjoy both the offensive and defencive boxing styles. U are only seeing half the picture.Comment

This is ridiculous. So with no Ko a fight is boring? Or unless there are knockdowns left right and centre? So you would prefer to watch a Mike Tyson one round destruction of some hack to a great fight that shows the most amount of skill as well...like Duran Leonard?
Willie pep boring? You mus not have seen his wars with Saddler. They were anything but boring and anything but him running away.
Also, tell me if you were fighting a much larger individual than yourself would you duck and avoid his punch then give him a wolloping uppercut? Or would you not move your head and get smacked and then try to hit him back if you haven't been KO'ed?
Go look at the records for fights of the year. Half of them are decisions. Fights that went the distance with no KO's. What a ****** thread.
Edit: What about the fight in my sig? Barrera giving a boxing lesson to Hamed. No KO's and no KD's yet it has to be one of the most exciting fights ever!Comment
