  • What’s your favourite fight?

    Seen a lot of the writers posting articles on this, thought I’d get some opinions of the posters.

    Leonard-Hearns 1981 for me. Just think it had everything. Two undefeated guys in their primes. Huge momentum swings, the puncher became the boxer and the boxer became the puncher. Incredible atmosphere and an emphatic finish too.

    Post your own…

    I found Floyd-Oscar more enjoyable than most viewers

    Prime top 10 atg VS a past prime atg

    High level chess with Floyd sweeping rounds 7 through 11

    it was a wrap once Floyd figured out how to outjab Oscar in the 2nd half of the fight

    Oscar stopped using his jab because Floyd started using his jab

      Floyd Saul was good too

      Past Prime top 10 atg vs pre prime atg

      That was the best of TBE we’d ever see

      Older Floyd TBE relied on his jab and movement

      gone were the reflexes of $ May the potshot artist who’d counter pwn opponents in the pocket

        Marquez vs Pacquiao IV wasn't necessarily the best fight but it was so, so damn satisfying after Marquez got jobbed in the first three fights.

            I have said openly and repeatedly that Pacquiao is an all time great, and he would still be an all time great even if all four fights against Marquez had gone against him officially.

                John Ruiz vs. Fres Oquendo. I rewatch it every day at dawn for inspiration.

                Sometimes I switch it up and watch Haye vs Valuev, though.

                  Oh, you're still in denial about the Ugas fight. That's what this is about.

                  Manny lost that fight. Live with the reality.

                    So many over the years. I’ll just name three that immediately come to mind.

                    Duran-Leonard I: An ATG fight by any standards. Two of the all-time greatest at their weight — indeed, P4P — and in their primes. How often do you see that anymore? A razor-close match-up between two finely honed fighting machines, and the struggle lived up to the hype. Just doesn’t get any better.

                    Castillo-Corrales I: Yet another bout that regularly appears on such lists. That one was something to watch. Drama on a large scale. Rare is the fight that measures-up for sheer guts and excitement.

                    Qawi-Holyfield I: Incredible. One of the best fights you’ll ever see. I watched this on live, free TV. Those were the days.
