[kosaros]

bika vs codrington

[Mandanda]

one of my faves that i dnt hear mentioned a lot was McCallum v Watson, the bodysnatcher close to his best

yeah watched that about 6 months back on ESPN Classics and just sat back and watched Mike put on a great display and Micheal show his worth. Great fight.

As a kid growing up and to this day i know mickey ward will be remembered for the Gatti trilogy but the Shea Neary fight for the time it lasted was a toe to toe war and the body shot and hook combo to end it was a great way to win a fight.

Alex Arthur v Michael Gomez

Somsak Sithchatchawal vs Mahyar Monshipour (absolute beauty of a fight that won the ring mag FOTY 06 yet its rarely talked about)

Somsak Sithchatchawal vs Mahyar Monshipour (absolute beauty of a fight that won the ring mag FOTY 06 yet its rarely talked about)

its because noone can pronounce there names

a great fight

how about Barney Ross vs Jimmy McLarnin that is a good fight with great skills with some wicked exchanges

[brown bomber]

Mullings-Oliver.

[Chinny]

Chapo Rosario v Jose Luis Ramirez was a beauty

Agree with these. Rosario-Ramirez is a cracking short fight. Somsak-Mahyar is another war and I just watched Freitas-Barrios yesterday. Top fight with a great finish.

[D-MAC]

Israel Vasquez v Jhonny Gonzalez


Now that was a classic fight, but it seems to have been lost under the weight of the Marquez-Vasquez trilogy.

[Betty Swollocks]

Toney-Jirov and Pac-Hatton.

[NO MAS]

Holligan v Neary - The Nark In The Park :happy:happy

[GPater11093]

Marquez vs Pacquaio 1 and 2 great great fights

Kelley vs Darsey this fight is amazing non stop action with heas of heart

[safc1990]

Agree with these. Rosario-Ramirez is a cracking short fight. Somsak-Mahyar is another war and I just watched Freitas-Barrios yesterday. Top fight with a great finish.

Ishy, did you score the Freitas-Barrios fight? If so, who did you have up going into the 12th because every time I've seen it I have Barrios at least 3 up going into the final round. Saying that you could tell as soon as Barrios went down at the end of the 11th he wasn't going the distance.

[El Cepillo]

Tito Trinidad's entire IBF welterweight reign from Blocker to Pineda.

[hitman_hatton1]

Tito Trinidad's entire IBF welterweight reign from Blocker to Pineda.

campas fight is a standout.

love the way he knocks the stuffing out of carr as well.

pure precision punching. :bbb

[Cobra33]

Always thought Colin Jones vs mccroy bous were very good.
Steve Robinson's bout were he won his title was a good fight.
Colin Jones vs Laing 1 and 2
Mark Kaylor vs Errol Christie
Graham vs Mccallum was entertaing from a skill point.
Barry Mguigan vs Cruz
Fred Pendleton vs Tony Lopez
Fred Pendleton vs Rafel Ruelas

[El Cepillo]

campas fight is a standout.

love the way he knocks the stuffing out of carr as well.

pure precision punching. :bbb

Yeah, there are a lot of fights that follow the same pattern, Trinidad gets put on his ass early, comes back with a brutal KO. My personal favourites are against Zulu and Lueshing. Great way to spend an afternoon, watching Tito's IBF reign.

Ishy, did you score the Freitas-Barrios fight? If so, who did you have up going into the 12th because every time I've seen it I have Barrios at least 3 up going into the final round. Saying that you could tell as soon as Barrios went down at the end of the 11th he wasn't going the distance.

Nah, I didn't score it SAFC. Just watched the fight. I'd guess it was really close though going into the 12th.

Yeah, Barrios was totally out of it after the KD in the 11th. That was an awesome KD, Freitas landed the punch and the bell went at exactly the same time.

[sitiyzal]

Mark Prince vs Michael Gale.

Yeah, there were a lot of close rounds which could have gone either way, judges scorecards after 11 reflect that

Peter Trematerra- 105-105
Danny Nelson- 106-103 Freitas
Guy Jutras- 106-104 Barrios

[safc1990]

Just watched Vargas vs Wright, a very under-rated fight

Great call, I'll watch this again when I have my next spare hour or so :good

I was just about to post this nice one :good

Great fight this and not mentioned much either.

[rumour24tiger]

Mark Prince v Michael Gale - gore, drama, massive switches in momentum, during the last couple of rounds. An insane light heavyweight fight.

Wayne McCullough v Jose Luis Bueno - loads of punches, McCullough picking his shots far better than the late career McCullough, Bueno always returning fire with short, sharp, savage counters. Huge workrate, rapid fire stuff all the way.

Michael Ayers v Wayne Rigby 1 & 2; Colin Dunne v Michael Ayers & Billy Schwer; Shea Neary v Any Holligan & Mickey Ward -- proof that you can have great fights for fringe titles, allowing the fighters to make a bit extra money.

Carl Thompson v Akim Tafer - European cruiserweight title, in France, Thompson has the living shit beaten out of him - perhaps more than any of us have ever seen - as Tafer unloads heavy, correct, damaging shots on an outclassed Thompson. Thompson weathers it, rallies, Tafer starts going down, Thompson wins a great war.

[rumour24tiger]

Israel Vasquez v Jhonny Gonzalez


Now that was a classic fight, but it seems to have been lost under the weight of the Marquez-Vasquez trilogy.
yeah what pissed me off was everyone saying how guzman v barrios was going to be fight of the night. guzman edges barrios, looks great in spurts...vazquez wins a war, and everyone goes on about that running slapper from the dominican republic

vazquez v larios 2 is an excellent fight as well; one that doesn't end so well for "Magnifico" Vazquez!

[rumour24tiger]

Mullings-Oliver.
To be honest, I feel that Oliver won pretty one-sided. Although it was definitely exciting.

[lucatoni08]

its because noone can pronounce there names

a great fight

Great Fight. Both those guys would put manners on most of the light welter/welterwieght fighting today....

[Ischbaad]

In Jin Chi vs Michael Brodie.

[kosaros]

Would love to see that fight if anyone has a copy of it.

[Lee Mc]

I can't find it on Youtube but Ross Minter vs Chas Symonds...

[lucatoni08]

[rumour24tiger]

Darius Michalczewski v Leeonzer Barber - D-Man lands ramrod double jabs, Barber - the big, muscular Kronk fighter - counters over with right crosses and under with right uppercuts, D-Man the more active, pressing the action, Barber sharp shooting, lands KO-quality bombs that D-Man shakes off, quality punch picking, skillful offensive boxing from both sides all night, excellent overall bout for WBO light heavyweight title.

Dariusz Michalczewski v Roberto Dominguez-Perez - wild 2-round shootout. D-M hurt early, rallies to knock his man out cold in 2nd.

Dariusz Michalczewski v Graciano Rocchigiani rematch - bruising encounter, Rocchi with fast hands, D-M breaking him down with those heavy jabs and body shots that can break a fighter in half.


Hozumi Hasegawa v Veeraphol Sahaprom 1 - very, very tough fight fought at high level of skill and intensity. Unfortunately ignored fight, forgotten around the time of Corrales-Castillo 1 and Sithchatchawal-Monshipour, etc.


Thomas Ulrich v Rachid Kanfouah - excellent European light heavy title fight

Zsolt Erdei v Mehdi Sahnoune - unexpected slugfest involving an injured, knackered but very brave and determined Erdei

[rumour24tiger]

Joichiro Tatsuyoshi v Singwangcha

absolute war, WBC bantam title and it's on youtube

[Claypole]

Johnny Nelson vs Carlos de Leon is an often overlooked gem.

Brodie-Chi I is on Youtube!!! Didn't know that.

[ScouseLad]

Katsidis v Amonsot.

Amonsot was told he'd never fight again after something wrong with the brain, think it might of been a bleed. But he was given the all clear and has fought twice at home this year.

I remember Amonsots bleached blonde hair being red by the end!
