If You Wanted to Get Somebody Interested in Boxing, What Fight Would You Show Them?

[Tony Trick-Pony]

You've got a friend over who's not a boxing fan. You have YouTube on your smart TV. What fight do you look up to show them how great boxing can be?

For me, it would be Micky Ward-Arturo Gatti I or Erik Morales-Marco Antonio Barrera I or maybe Micky Ward-Emmanual Augustus. What fight would you show?

I have to throw in George Foreman-Ron Lyle as well.

I agree on all, except Ward-Kovalev since it hasn't happened yet, but I get what you mean. It could be one of those fights but as much as I look forward to it, I honestly don't think it will be. But of course, only time will tell.

I've showed that fight to a lot of my casual boxing friends. Plus Hagler is my favorite fighter ever. I've had friends tell me, "if there were more big fights like that these days, boxing would be my favorite sport."

Pacquiao Morales is super macho. Fighters like Ward-Gatti are too bumish, personally don't think it shows the skills.

Pacquiao-cotto is one of my all time favourites too, have watched it a ton of times. I'm sure casuals would love that, crowd and commentary were hyped.

Too "bumish" maybe in your eyes, but these are casuals. They want a WAR!
