Yahoo Sports: "TOP 5 FIGHTS of the Decade"

[Doctor_Tenma]

Emanuel Burton vs Mickey Ward?

One of if not the most underrated fight.

I am not in favor of the number 1... Corrales cheated a lot by spitting out his mouthpiece and gave him enough time to recover... castillo busted his ass so clear anyway in the rematch..

He paid the consequences by having a point deducted. I actually respect what Corrales did; showed how much heart he had and what extent he'd go to, to win.

Ward vs gatti>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

i would not pick any of those fights listed in my personal Top 5 of the last decade.

1/. Sithchatchawal v Monshipour
2/. Cotto vs Margarito
3/. Vitali vs Lewis
4/. Pacquiao vs Morales (2)
5/. Mosley vs Margarito

I thought Vazquez-Marquez 3 was better than JMM-Pac or even Tito-Vargas fight was better than JMM-Pac IMO.

This post...

Somsak Sithchatchawal TKO 10 Mahyar Monshipour is easy the no.2 fight of the decade...the article sounds a bit biased to fights that happened in North America...

... and this one as well, best sums up my thoughts.

I have to be honest, Yahoo's boxing coverage is borderline embarrassing. Kevin Iole's last true contribution to the sport was being the guy who had the 411 on Mayweather-Marquez buyrate.

Not going to argue with Corrales vs. Castillo at all, but Vazquez vs. Marquez III was better than the first two and better than either Pacquiao vs. JMM fight.

Emanuel Burton vs Mickey Ward?

thank you! I couldnt remeber what Augustus' name was back then

[mellow_mood]

those mexicans know how to give a warrrrrrrr

[SCtrojansbaby]

Marquez vs Pac shouldn't be top 5 IMO.

The list seems to favor trilogies and rematches.
