    Morales - Pacquiao just seemed to be a duller version of the best of the Morales - Barrera wars...after the first half of round 1 the outcome was never in doubt (until Morales did a dumdb thing by switching to southpaw). Even if Coralles - Castillo never happened I still probably wouldn't vote for it, since to me it was nothing we hadn't ever seen before.

    Now Arce - Hussein...now that was a brawl. Especially when you consider the weight class they fight in, the amount of blood they drew was incredible. And Hussein's slow-motion fall to the canvas at the end of it was classic.

    Still, Coralles - Castillo is #1 by a mile.

        Is there really any other option than Corrales-Castillo I?

              How is this thread even relevant?

              I won't bother reading. But anyone that voted for anything other than Castillo/Corrales is not only an idiot. But an ******* as well.

                On that list, Mayweather vs. Gatti was the best fight. Mayweather's the best fighter on that list and he beat the **** out of Gatti, someone I hate, so it was great for me.

                Judah vs. Spinks 2 would obviously be my favorite fight of the year. My favorite fighter beat a fighter I don't like, beat the **** out of him too. At the end of the night, it was the fight that made me the happiest of any fight in a long ass time.

                I still look back on that night and just have to smile. Undisputed! That means anybody wanting it at Welterweight HAS TO COME TO JUDAH. No more of this ducking bull****. Judah's in the driver's seat now. If these ******s want the welterweight title, they HAVE to go through Judah, which...heh, they can't.

                  Pac-Morales. The Castillo vs Corrales was too slow paced for me, I mean the tempo of the fight. It was like they were in round 12 from the 1st round and throwing punches sparingly, as in 1 punch instead of combinations. Watch Hearns vs Duran, gatti vs ward II rnd 3 and barrera vs Morales rnd 5 to know what i mean by fast paced fight. The punch count for castillo vs corrales isnt too great. I rate the Arce fight above it too.
