I think a lot of people are having trouble with the "this century" deal of this thread....

[Rome-By-Ko]

Corrales v Castillo 1 is the best fight of the century not the best win of the century.

The best win has to involve ATG bona fide legit hall of famers that are still relatively in good shape and standing in the game. It also has to be a great fight.

Those are the prerequisites for best win of the century.

The only candidates i can think of that meet those criteria are:

Hopkins vs Trinidad
Pacquiao vs Morales 1
Pacquiao vs Marquez 4

Id go with Pacquiao vs Marquez 4 despite the ped talk surrounding marquez and memo.

Your right,I totally was thinking about best fight..

Best win,that's a tough one..I'd go with Shane over Oscar 1..Mosley change the landscape of two div with that win..I think B-Hop over Tito was big as well..Tito was on a tear..

Broner's amazing win over Rees..

Or GGG's historic win over Ishida lololol

B-Hop has quite a few significant wins in this century.

His display of skill vs Trinidad was a classic and most underappreciated win in his career.

His wins over Tarver, Cloud and Pascal were huge IMO.

Roy Jones win over Ruiz was great to watch. A MW winning the HW title. That victory is over looked due to how his career has played out since then. If he retired then, he'd be seen in a totally different light.

Shane over DLH was big as well. 2 top guys in the sport, popularity wise and p4p going at it. The atmosphere for that fight was crazy. But Shane admitted to taking steroids for the 2nd fight....hard to imagine he didn't for the first fight as well, but who am I to speculate.

I'll have to go with Marquez-Pac IV for me. Biggest win in the last 10 years.

[Nagabilly]

How about Pac-Barrera?

Hopkins Trinidad is the first thing that popped into my head.

Just weeks after 9/11, in New York at the Garden.

Hopkins put on a clinic. Say what you want about Trinidad fighting at 160.


This would have been a lot easier to answer if Floyd and Manny fought.

[Salardo]

The biggest win of this century was Lewis against Mike Tyson. Of course, looking back it is easy to say Tyson was done and had no chance. But going into the fight, tons of people thought the old Tyson would enter the ring and win against Lennox.
Tyson vs Lewis was super big. In my opinion that fight in 2002 was without a doubt the biggest, most anticipated fight since 2000 in all of boxing.
