      Yeah after a couple threads and a little help from my good pal Tua, a lot of hopkins haters gave me like 20000 rep points of bad k and angry messages. One of them for a response where I was telling someone not to bother defending hopkins when everyone was saying how they were gonna enjoy watching him get KTFO by pav. They had these long ridiculous posts and terrible reasons why, and all I said was hey bro it aint worth the aggravation and red k defending someone that they all wanna see get knocked out, just sig their crazy assumptions the day of the fight and all will be good. RED K FOR SPIEGELO!!!!

          Tszyu-Hatton perhaps. Keep in mind that I have very little respect for Hatton's style though so I may be biased.

          I don't like his style either, and with a better ref, I think that fight would've gone differently.

            Hearns vs. Leonard
            Duran vs. Leonard 1.
            Maybe Forrest vs. Mayorga? I don't like saying that one because I don't like Vernon.

            What other fights can you think of?
            Nice thread abosworth.

            Michael Nunn vs. James Toney
            Michael Watson vs. Chris Eubank I & II
            Thomas Hearns vs. Iran Barkley I & II
            Michael Nunn vs. Steve Little
            Kid Akeem Anifawoshe vs. Robert Quiroga


            I could list hundreds but that's a few to be getting on with.

                  Wasn't that the fight where Toney was behind the whole fight an scored that late KO?

                  I know I posted the contrary when I said Toney vs. everyone but Roy. I didn't' remember that fight and while I don't know much about Nunn, that was the general consensus..

                    Nunn gave him a boxing lesson for 6-7 rounds and got ****y which cost him later as Toney started coming back at him.

                    If you want I can send you the fight. Nunn should have gone on to achieve great things and is my all time favourite fighter. I met him when he boxed the journeyman Steve Little as a joint double header with Benn vs. Wharton.

                    The two winners were due to meet in a unification bout but Little spoiled the party and my night by winning a bull**** decision. He put Nunn down in the 1st but that was the only round he won in a boring fight. Nunn was never the same after the Toney defeat despite winning another title.

                    You should see his title winning effort against the unbeaten olympic gold medalist and huge favourite Frank Tate, boxing masterclass. Then his greatest night in a middleweight unification against Sumbu Kalambay, again a favourite and had never been floored in over 50 fights. Nunn sparked him out cold in 90 seconds which was something he shouldn't have been able to do.

                      I'm agreeing with you.

                      Being a yid you're ignorant anyways, but i'll let you off the hook there.
