      Kirkland vs Angulo. That fight was crazy, looked like Kirkland was going to get sparked in the first round and then all of a sudden Kirkland is coming back and Angulo is in all kinds of trouble. That entire fight was crazy.

      Shane Mosley vs Antonio Margarito. I thought Margarito was going to retire Mosley. Mosley didnt just win, he knocked him the f-uck out. Round 9 when Mosley finished Margarito was electrifying to me.

        For me, it's when I've really anticipated a fight, and right after the opening bell, seeing the two opponents come toward each other and me thinking; "This is it. This is what I've been waiting for."
        All the speculation and anticipation is gone, we're there in the eye of the storm.

        Another is when I see a fighter get KD'd and he gets back up and goes on to win the fight. Knowing that fighter is now REALLY under pressure and seeing him give everything hes got to grab that W. Wlad v Peter. Ward v Kovalev. Calzaghe v Jones and Hopkins.

          Now how about this one; I went to the closed circuit theater in 1982 or '83 to see Tommy Hearns vs Wilfred Benitez, which i enjoyed. I mean Benitez was one of my favorite fighters back then & here he was fighting Hearns, who was knocking everyone out! I honestly feared for Benitez life. Seeing this live & not knowing the outcome was soooooo exciting!. But the real treat of the night was the fight that stole the show. Mexico's Lupe Pintor vs Puerto Rico's Wilfredo Gomez...WOW!!! What a fight. Watching this live & unfold was AMAZING!!! Two great Warriors.

            Honestly, pretty much every big fight I get that feeling and it's why I love boxing so much. I'll probably even be like that for the Porter/Berto fight this weekend! And Joshua/Klitschko the next week I'll probably be bouncing around the room during the ring walks for that one and might fall off my couch when they're eye to eye in the ring!!!

                Yes, yes, yes, everything right here!!! Corrales/Castillo is the first 1 that comes to mind like this for me.

                  The K.O of Marquez vs Pacquiao was the most electrified moment in the history of boxing.

                  The most brutal and important K.O of the history, simply that...

                    There's plenty to choose from but the first one that came to mind was froch vs groves 1 round 1. Never expected to see froch dropped like that.

                      Izzy Vazquez v. Jhonny Gonzalez. Jhonny drops Izzy like 3 times. But each time Izzy pops up like he's more pissed than anything else. WHen he got up that last time, knowing Jhonny isnt the sturdiest dude, I told my homie - watch Izzy is gonna win this fight by KO. Sure enough.
