Top 5 greatest rounds of all time???

[Kball15]

What do u think are the top 5 greatest rounds in the history of the sport. It doesnt have to be purely action, it could also have to do with the history surrounding the fight and/or controversies.

My top 5 rounds of all time:

5- Round 8- Rumble in the Jungle. The whole fight was a hard fought war, and that was pretty much the perfect ending.

4- Round 14- Thrilla in manilla. A great round in probably the greatest heavyweight fight of all time.

3- Round 7- Jack dempsey vs Gene Tunney. SOOO much controversy surrounding the long count. i can watch that round over and over again. That may be one of boxings most memorable fights.

2- Round 10- Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo. This may not belong in this list, but everytime i watch this round i get chills. This is a round thats going to go down in history forever. I can watch this round 100 times over and not be bored of it. just an outstanding round and one of the best endings to a fight ever.

1- Round 1- Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs Tommy Hearns. Pretty much self explanitory. The hype that lead up to this fight was so incredibly high, that exceeding the expectations was nearly impossible. But wow, that round was amazing. It is still highly regarded as the greatest round in boxing history

I think Round 11 of Eubank-Watson II was the second greatest.

never saw that fight... was never much of a Eubank fan. Actually, i hated Eubank. Can someone upload that fight? I gotta judge it, make sure it could make the list.

An maybe Gatti vs Ward round 7 or 8 would make the list, but there isnt any history or controversy surrounding it.

Upload the fight? How about the six weeks worth of newspaper space, television news space, press conferences, all the hype and hatred towards Eubank in the build-up, the biggest ever world-wide audience for a boxing match in Britain (only overtaken by Benn-Eubank II), Eubank's ring entrance, and ofcourse the tragic aftermath. That round was everything, though, it made it.

Add to that an estimated 35,000 hooligans there at White Hart Lane all wanting to lynch Eubank (only 28,000 tickets were on sale, but thousands of hooligans broke entry).

round 10 - tyson/douglas

round 1 - lewis/schmeling 2

round 13 - marciano / walcott (most historic "punch" in heavyweight history as marciano would almost surely have lost fight had it made it the distance.)

[Violent Demise]

Round 10- Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo
Round 1- Marvelous Marvin Hagler vs Tommy Hearns
Round 4- Joel Casamayor vs Diego Corrales 1
Round 1- Michael Moorer vs Bert Cooper

What about the 10th of the first Holyfield/Bowe battle?

round 5 mab-em1

In my book the first round of Arguello/Pryor is up there with the first round of Hagler/Hearns, probably 2 of the best first round i've seen in my life.
