Which Great Fight is hardest for you too watch?

[TIGEREDGE]

for me it has to be ali v frazier 3. too brutal a fight and to think how close they came to death

[Addie]

Gerald McClellan vs Nigel Benn

[gooners!!]

Barrera vs Pacquiao if you can call it that.

Not a great fight, a great performance...otherwise that'd be far and away my number one hardest to watch.

[BlackWater]

I still cannot watch Tyson-Douglas, and probably will never be able to.

[asero]

Barrera vs Pacquiao if you can call it that.

i never get tried watching that fight

a pre-prime ATG demolished a prime ATG

That's because you're a Pactard mate, you didn't need to point out the obvious. I couldn't begin to fathom the amount of times you've jacked off over Manny and his little mustache.

"Joppy-Duran." But I knew it was coming................ Hell, Ol' Duran even got an extra two months to train cuz the initial date in June 1998 was cancelled when "Holy-Akinwande" fell apart in New York because of a hepititas scare from Akinwande........ It didn't matter.... A 47 year old Duran was fodder for Joppy in August 1998...... Age was a BIG factor....... Peace......

MR.BILL:bbb:deal:hat

Certainly wouldn't qualify as a great fight by any means.

[Tin_Ribs]

I don't know about great, but one fight I can NEVER watch is the one featuring the mighty matchstick man in my avatar. Tragedies have been all too common in boxing through the ages, but this one......

Hugh McIlvanney's article concerning the fight and the aftermath is one of THE great pieces of sports journalism.

''THE nightmare that had been threatening her for years had become reality. She can scarcely avoid being bitter against boxing now and many who have not suffered such personal agony because of the hardest of sports will be asking once again if the game is worth the candle. Quite a few of us who have been involved with it most of our lives share the doubts. But our reactions are bound to be complicated by the knowledge that it was boxing that gave Johnny Owen his one positive means of self-expression. Outside the ring he was an inaudible and almost invisible personality. Inside, he became astonishingly positive and self-assured. He seemed to be more at home there than anywhere else. It is his tragedy that he found himself articulate in such a dangerous language.

The doctors’ struggle to rescue Johnny Owen from deep coma proved to be hopeless and he died in the first week of November 1980. His body was brought home to be buried in Merthyr Tydfil.''

Why??

Its such an inspiring performance

[JohnThomas1]

Certainly wouldn't qualify as a great fight by any means.

It might to Bill :lol:

He loves the senior circuit (Coetzee - Barkley, Duran - Camacho etc) :yep

[Bloomer]

Cotto - Margarito

yes im a pacquiao fan and believer

and barrera is my favorite victim

a pre-prime ATG destroying the ego of a prime ATG in his best weight infront of a pro-mexican crowd

such a perfect setting to prepare us to the legend of the pacific storm

Once against you are successful in stating the absolute obvious. You're in love with a grown man with a mustache, you ain't in love with the sport. You're entire basis for any argument you've ever engaged in..comes from boxrec.

[stevebhoy87]

Probably the thrilla in manilla, the damage it did to both espicially ali, its a great fight of course but you know the toll it took there after

you are the worst poster ever Asero!

[Flea Man]

That post from Asero GENUINELY had me in stitches, I'm shaking from laughter as I type now. Funny as fuck.

Cotto-Margarito for me, after seeing Cottos face from far harder punches (clear to see from the 4th round kd) and how Cottos face didn't look as bad as it did against Toni. No doubt in my mind now.

[Flea Man]

Asero, why don't you tell everyone about Carbajal vs Arce??? :rofl

[Addie]

Asero, why don't you tell everyone about Carbajal vs Arce??? :rofl

Joking aside, that is a beautiful moment. Michael Carbajal had envisioned himself being a much better professional then he turned out to be I believe, but to bow out of the sport after beating a young Jorge Arce at the twilight of your career is just perfect. So happy for him. The one that eluded father time, Michael Carbajal.

[rileyjj123456]

Morales-Pac2 for me.
Really bad to se my favourite fighter from about the 5th round on just being drained round by round with body shots and combos until there was nothing left except his fighters heart
