    Alll 3 fights in Vazquez-Marquez were terrific competitive fights, high skill level and drama. Bowe-Holyfield should be mentioned. Much, much better than Leonard-Duran. The third Leonard-Duran is one of the most boring big fights of all-time. The crowd started yelling "bull****, bull****" during the fight because it was so crappy. It was so boring and ****ty that Leonard's next fight did terrible at the box office. The rematch wasn't exactly great either.

    Bowe-Holyfield had 3 excellent fights and might actually be my favorite trilogy. Ali-Frazier had 2 classic bouts, but the rematch stunk.

    Gatti-Ward should be mentioned as it had one great fight, which featured one of the more amazing rounds you'll see, and another pretty good fight in the rubber match.

    The footage available, or what I've seen, of the fights in Zale-Graziano other than the 3rd one are terrible footage. I can't rank that since I haven't seen it.

    Bowe-Holyfield and Vazquez-Marquez are rare in the sense that all 3 fights were very exciting and also pretty competitive.

        Gatti and Ward had one great fight,they didn't have a great trilogy.Their last two fights were one sided in Gatti's favour in which he simply outboxed Watd to clear decisions.Gatti's two fights with Ivan Robinson trump that entire trilogy.



        The greatest and most underrated trilogy belongs to Jeff Harding and Dennis Andries.
