    I'm glad you found it useful. I noticed that you followed the link to the Gans-Nelson rbr.
    yeah... the rules of the sport of boxing during that time were quite demanding!

    that fight was like watching the entire vasquez vs marquez trilogy in 1 sitting!

        One poster (either Threadstealer or Londonringrules) said he had some 15 min. of the famous Nelson - Wolgast fight. Meaning he had from around round 30 until the end. He described it as a 40 round Arguello-Pryor fight.

          Pacquiao against goliath was underrated... Before the fight almost all people counting on goliath to send Pacman back to China but after the fight they all came back with there lame excuses and disrespecting goliath the fishnet...

                Ali's win over Ernie Terrell. Terrell was an ugly fighter (like John Ruiz) but he had a good resume. Today it's not mentioned among Ali's big wins.

                  Miguel Cotto vs. Muhammed Abdulaev.

                  A little more obscure than most examples. However, Abdulaev had beaten Cotto in the amatuers and had a style that gives Cotto trouble no matter what. Abdulaev was a very tough fighter, and game on that night. Cotto was just that much better.

                  Abdulaev may not be a big name, but I think as a win for Cotto, it's a bit underrated.

                    Are you for real, or you actually trying to pull someone leg?

                    he is 43 for crying out loud, get it into your head. All he could do was steal an SD of a 43 year old!!

                    Hopkins went on to fight Pavlik, What did Calazghe do? He should have faced Pavlik before he faced Hopkins, or atleast after, but instead he went to to face Roy Jones, who was shot est. 5 years ago. Yet, he still claimed Roy Jones was in his "Prime" when he faced him.
