    Plenty Roy Jones fights.

    The Pacquiao and Barrera 1 and Pacquiao Marquez 1 were impressive.

    OMG dont be a hater.... Everyone has their own opinion. Don't be "that guy"

    BTW imo Floyds fights with Canelo, Cotto, Mosely, Corley were impressive. IMO

      I dont know where it ranks in history, def not the most impressive but hopkins vs pavlik comes to mind , that was a great performance . How about Vernon Forrests performance against mosely in the first fight? . Buster Douglas against mike tyson ?

        To impress means to “wow” somebody.

        Floyd’s fights never contain much action, they’re not impressive. These are just facts. Floyd’s fights don’t have replay value, due to his point fighting style. It’s just the truth dude. If a bunch of guys were hanging out and decided to throw on a boxing match to watch, nobody is picking a Floyd fight. These are just facts man.



        That Tyson And Buster fight obviously was impressive.
        Pacquiao Thurman was impressive.

        Fights where underdogs came up big.

          I was just responding to the performances in the OP but i agree.

          Only reason i mentioned Floyd beating Canelo was because the way Floyd schooled him. It was a really good performance

              Lewis vs Holyfield I <<<< I think this was the best ever version of Lewis, destroyed Holyfield to be honest.
              I think Lennox is underrated much for not being popular like Tyson is overrated for being popular. I think Lewis deserved the win vs Holy but it was still an ugly fight. I haven’t watched it in a long time for that reason. But to say he destroyed Holy doesn’t leave u much room. I thought Holy won the second fight, but I was more of a fan of his. I was on a trip to Oz and in the pub they all cheered Lennox as the winner. So I question myself more than them.
              Barrera vs Hamed was a great performance. Cotto vs Martinez was great even if Martinez was leaking more oil than most thought.

                      In hindsight the Canelo performance is mightily impressive.
