    Danny Williams-Tyson, he ended the prime Tyson's claim to being the baddest man
    Danny Williams-Vitali, he retired the heir apparent to Lewis
    Danny Williams-Audley, he exposed the hypejob
    Danny Williams-Potter, he beats another future champion by a last round KO
    Danny Williams-the atkins diet, he proves the results was all bull****

              jose luis castillo and chico corrales comes to mind t was a great fight and had probably the most dramatic ending ever.

              roy jones vs john ruiz because roy had captured a heavyweight title after starting out as middleweight

              mayweather and de la hoya not because of how great a fight it was but no other fight has ever gotten the worlds attention as much as that one did.

              manny vs oscar could be there too because it made manny a superstar and was kinda like a passing of the torch since manny took oscars throne as the face of boxing.

              i think hopkins vs pavlik too cuz just how old b hop was and how big an underdog he was and how he just completely destroyed pavlik

                Lewis-Klitschko
                Reason: passed heavyweight torch down to Klit bros, though not technically a win.
                Mayweather-De La Hoya
                Reason: Made Mayweather household name
                Pacquiao-De La Hoya
                Reason: Ended De La Hoya's career and brought Pacquiao into spotlight
                Jones-Tarver II
                Reason: Ended mystique of icon
                Corrales-Castillo I
                Reason: one of the best fights ever, plain and simple

                  Trinidad - Bhop= bhop finally became a big name.

                  Mayweather - De La Hoya= so much HYPE!!!!

                  Barrera - Morales 1= such a great fight, and the begining of there rivalry.

                  Lewis - Vitali= last good HW fight.

                  Gatti - Ward 1= the most EXCITING fight of the decade.
