What is the best display of boxing brilliance you have ever seen in a fight? What made it so good?
Mine is probably Sugar Ray Leonard's defeat of Tommy Hearns, but there are a lot of candidates. It might just be that the balance of the fight swung so drastically too and fro, but the way Sugar ray showed off boxing skill, tremendous heart and cold blooded tactical calculation means that for me, that one just about tops the pile.
What's yours?
B Hop against Trinidad
Mayweather against Coralles
Winky against Trinidad
Calzaghe vs Lacy
Roy Jones vs James Toney
were all one sided dominating performances by brilliant fighters who fought perfect fights
A fight he arguably lost is one of the best performances you've ever seen?
Throwing flurries 30secs tp the bell to steal each round is one of the best performances you've ever seen?
I don't get it.
It was a great performance. Huge underdog coming of a long lay-off, going up in weight to face arguably the most dominant MW in history. I was thrilled then and I'm thrilled now as I think about the fight. SRL might have been flashy, but it was a great performance.

Yeah I agree with you then.
Nobody expected him to fight like that after such a long lay off. I thought you meant he dominated Hagler. That's why I questioned it.
