I would have to say that it is the Meldrick Taylor vs. Julio Chavez fight. I still can't believe Richard Steele stopped the fight with 2 seconds to go. It took some time for Steele to live that down, and Taylor never was the same fighter after that.
I can still hear Larry Merchant beside himself saying,"What is Richard Steele doing?" I still think that should have been Taylor's victory, and his last fight. I don't think he had anything left after that. Who could blame him?
- Taylor should have boxed vs. slugged in the last 3 rounds
- Taylor should have ducked the 2 big overhand rights in round 12
- Taylor should have ANSWERED Steele when he asked "are ya OK???"
still, as a Taylor fan with $ on the line, I feel your pain

Same for me, Meldrick Taylor vs. Julio Chavez. Those Mexicans really screwed Taylor that night.
Wilfredo Gomez vs Sanchez, just cause Gomez was showing great boxing skill, while Sanchezs power was getting to him. People really do respect Gomez more after watching that fight, a Cuban was amazed by him, and started to ask about him alot, when I showed the fight to him.Last edited by IwatchBoxing; 07-23-2005, 06:15 PM.

Gatti/Mayweather was beyond brutal. I have all the respect in the world for PBF; he's one of my favorites, but I grew up loving Gatti and it was incredibly difficult watching him take a beating of that magnitude. I knew there was no way he could win that fight, but I didn't expect it to be a COMPLETELY one-sided ass whooping, either.

Curry - McCallum
I thought Curry was on his way back after the good start then he gets startched with one punch and that's the last we ever saw of the "million dollar fighter", as Merchant reffered to him teh first time he saw him fight.
