i agree that the night Shane beat Oscar in LA was great...........

he wont replicate that one...

Oscar beating vargas was memorable..

Hopkins v Tito ..

James Toney either Jirov or Holyfield..

great fights....

[TBooze]

Roy Jones -TarverII: Brilliant fighter, but ultimately blew it

Toney - Ruiz: Steroids taint his legacy

Hopkins - Trinidad: Redemption after seven+ years of rebuilding

Calzaghe - Eubank: Excellent fighter, but comes along five years to late

Floyd Mayweather - Leonard: Shows he is tough journeyman

Oscar - ChavezI: de la Hoya proves he is for real, but Chavez's poor preparation robs everyone of a proper fight and clean finish.

Mosley - de la HoyaI: Mosley proves he is more than hype

Hatton -Tszyu: Hatton shows nice blokes can also be world class fighters.

PAC - BarreraI: After a fair amount of decent wins, Paciquao takes his chance to show to a new audience how good he is.

It's a great term 'career defining fights', but in truth careers define careers.

All these people who say Jirov was Toney'd biggest win are wrong, cuz it was Nunn... shit, even Holy was a bigger win than Jirov.

A career defining fight isn't the biggest win. Sometimes it isn't even a win.
