    If HBO did a new legendary nights series...

    What twelve fights would you like to see covered?

    I’d go:

    Pacquiao-Marquez 4
    Barrera-Morales 1
    Gatti-Ward 1
    Hopkins-Trinidad
    De La Hoya-Mayweather
    De La Hoya-Pacquiao
    Mayweather-Pacquiao
    De La Hoya-Mosley
    Cotto-Margarito 1
    Mayweather-Hatton
    Mosley-Margarito
    Barrera-Hamed

    Listed them off the top of the dome, so apologies if I missed an obvious one...

      HBO has a tale of Gatti-Ward on demand with Spectrum. It's been on there a while now. It's a really good documentary about their rivalry and eventual friendship covering the trilogy and Gatti induction. If you haven't seen it I suggest it to you.

        Them leaving the way they did still feels like the life of the party just looked around one day and went “you know what? Parties are gay” as they got up and left everyone hanging.

        And solid list. Not sure a better one could be made, although I’m tired AF. Might be the covid acting up.

          Don’t think I’ve seen it. Would that be available in the UK?

          I will try and find it on YouTube or something if not.

            I cant say if its available in the UK or not but it's one of the better documentaries I've ever seen much less on boxing. Well worth finding.

              Here ya go

              I truly feel like boxing would be better understood to even the most casual of fans and detractors if everybody watched it

                  Embedded vids usually get more watches around here. Great fight.

                    Man, I really loved that series.

                    I know HBO isn't in the boxing game anymore, but I wish they would revive this series and do another boxing documentaries.

                    Jones-Tarver II is another one I would add. And Morales-Pacquiao 1.

                    I'm surprised they never covered Leonard-Duran II.
