    The Top 12 Unification Bouts of the last 25 years

    Boxing Monthly this week had writer Steve Farhood present his favourite unification fights of the last 25 years. I know what you're thinking... surely Frank Bruno vs. Floyd "Jumbo" Cummings headed the list? But not so. Here's the full countdown:


    Julio Cesar Chavez vs. Meldrick Taylor

    Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Thomas Hearns

    Lennox Lewis vs. Evander Holyfield I & II

    Felix Trinidad vs. Oscar De La Hoya/Fernando Vargas/Bernard Hopkins

    Michael Carbajal vs. Chiquita Gonzalez

    Kostya Tszyu vs. Zab Judah

    Johnny Tapia vs. Danny Romero

    Michael Spinks vs. Dwight Qawi

    Erik Morales vs. Marco Antonio Barrera I

    Oscar De La Hoya vs. Fernando Vargas




    The Next 12: Holyfield vs. Moorer, Tyson vs. Tucker, Holyfield vs. DeLeon, Freitas vs. Joel Casamayor, Wright vs. Moseley, Hill vs. Maske, Eubank vs. Benn II (JuyJuy's pick), Curry vs. McCrory, Hamed vs. Johnson, Chavez vs. Ramirez, Michalczewski vs. Hill, Mayorga vs. Forrest

        I don't see how anyone could see Lewis vs Holyfield 1 as a favourite unification fight, the shoddy decision just left a bitter taste in the mouth that basically ruined a good performance from Lennox Lewis.

            JUYJUY,

            Are you making **** up again?

            I don't see Steve Farhood posted in this thread!
            Now you're making up posts to talk about Eubank and Nigel Benn?

            That's Low!

                My bad... :-)

                But still it was not posted by "Originally Posted by Steve Farhood"
                It was posted by Anorak

                Anyway,

                You know I don't mean to jump on you it's just that your obsession with Eubank / Nigel Benn is driving everyone nuts

                Why don't you post in the "Boxing History" forum?
                To my knowledge, people here want to talk about current fighters and upcoming fights... and not 3000 posts about Eubank.

                    Why you suckin' him off for, Cooler? I was about to hit you with good K for that funny post in the other thread (OH WAIT... Nigel Benn, Nigel Benn, Nigel Benn...)

                    JuyJuy, Cooler's right, you need to get more than one topic, old son.
