        Mosley vs Margarito
        Pacquiao vs Margarito
        Cotto vs Margarito II
        Margarito vs NYSAC

        nah, heres the real thing in no particular order

        Marquez vs Diaz
        Rios vs Alvarado I
        Segura vs Calderon I
        Ortiz vs Berto
        Cotto vs Margarito I

        honorable mention: Ortiz vs Josesito Lopez

        This is just off the top of my head. I can't believe how much I struggled to recall just a couple of my favorite fights. Goes to show how much boxing I've watched in the short time I've followed the sport.

          You rank the Canelo-Trout fight that high? I'm surprised. Haven't been able to watch it twice myself. The Rigo vs Donaire fight i've watched multiple times, though. Weird how it goes for fans.

          It's hard to think for me. Can't really rank them, I think. And I'm sure i'll forget some stunners. There are fights I always go back to, including all JMM vs Pac fights.

          To tell you truth I think my favorite since 2008 was Margarito Cotto 1; but then it was ruined for reasons we all know.

            Canelo came of age & proved the doubters wrong.

                  Pascal-Froch - 08
                  Dawson-Johnson - 08
                  Mayweather-Marquez - 09
                  Ward-Kessler - 09
                  Hopkins-Pavlik - 08

                  There's so many to choose from though, Mosley-Margarito, Berto-Ortiz, Berto-Guerrero, Lopez-Ortiz, Berto-Zollazo, Williams-Martinez, Pavlik-Miranda, Abraham-Miranda I, JMM-Pac II & IV, etc..Just so many.
