            you're telling me, man. especially the way he just sort of crumpled over like that, after getting completely out-boxed the whole night. it was terrible.

            but i guess it made the loss to gomez a little easier to swallow.

              I was pretty sad when Arturo Gatti was beaten for the last time by Alfonso Gomez.

              Funny you should pick those 2. I would take them as my top two.

              Being at Gatti - Ward 3 would be my third. It was an amazing environment for a fight.

              The Gatti - Gomez fight was a heartbreaker. I was 15 rows back and when Arturo ate that right hand I turned my back to the ring and stared at my seat for about 5 minutes. Iv'e never cried for any fight , but I had to hold a few tears back that night. I knew it was the end of an era

                Another sad memory. I recall watching that fight with a buddy and we were headed to AC the next weekend to see Cotto fight Torres.

                Levander was from Atlantic City and they hit the bell 10 times. The one and only time I have ever been in a dead silent Boardwalk Hall.

                Then I saw a life and death Cotto fight. Down on the canvas once and rocked numerous times.

                Odd how things happen

                  While I wasn't watching boxing at the time (I was 8) and wouldn't see the fight until years later... watching Foreman knock out Moorer and win the HW title somehow lifted my soul up inside of me.

                  An easily out-pointed, out-matched, and out-of-shape Foreman shocks everybody.

                  The look on George's face as the ref waves it off and he looks up to where he believes God to be looking down upon him, and takes a knee in the corner. The gravity of the moment and something so deserved being delivered to a great man.

                  Still one of my favorite moments in boxing history to relive.
