  • Which Year Produced The Best Fights?

    Not Fight, FIGHTS?

    2011 has been a pretty grim year for fights.

    So my question which year produced the best fights in a 12 months span?

    Year 2000:
    -Erik Morales vs Marco Antonio Barrera I
    -Felix Trinidad vs Fernando Vargas
    -Oscar De La Hoya vs Shane Mosley I
    -Naseem Hamed vs Augie Sanchez
    -Floyd Mayweather vs Emanuel Augustus
    -Ben Tackie vs Robert Garcia

      1982 comes to mind.

      Just look at the fights that took place within about a month span in November and December.

      Aaron Pryor-Alexis Arguello 1
      Wilfredo Gomez-Lupe Pintor
      Dwight Muhammad Qawi-Eddie Davis
      Bobby Chacon-Bazooka Limon 4

      You also had Ray Mancini-Duk Koo Kim. Obviously the tragedy overshadowed what has been said to be a very good action fight (I never watched it).

      Earlier in that year, Larry Holmes-Gerry Cooney was a megabout and a pretty entertaining fight IMO.

      Aaron Pryor-Akio Kameda was also an exciting title fight.

          Beat me too it, Rolando Navarrete - Chung II Choi was an incredible fight that year as well.

            Navarette-Limon was another great fight in that year.

            You also had Sanchez-Nelson, which was Sanchez's last.

            Mancini-Frias, Arguello-Ganigan.
