Fights that had you off your seat....literally...!!!!

[Taffyy]

Lots of contenders personally & not just superfights..........Obviously Morales v Barrera , Corralles v Castillo , Gatti v Ward...........I can honestly say though that for me the most animated I have been was watching Micheal Gomez v Arthur..........Im not a fan of Arthur but I used to really identify with Gomez.....The rough upbringing ...council estate problems etc...etc........When he dismantled Arthur with those clubbing hooks I nearly put my head through the T.V........!!!!!!!!........For British fans Brodie V Chi was another barnstormer.........Obviously Joe Calzaghe shutting up basically the whole of Americas boxing media when he gave Lacy a lesson was another unforgettable out of the seat moment !!!!

[Warfist]

Barrera - McKinney had me literally jumping around throwing combos till I was out of breath.

Rahman - Lewis 1 when Rock landed that right hand I seriously almost hit my head on the ceiling I jumped so high off the couch.

Simon Brown - Vincent Pettway was an exciting and brutal fight throughout but when Pettway landed that fight ending shot that had Brown throwing punches while unconscious, I shot straight up and felt my jaw drop about a foot. :shock:


Hamed - Kelley had me out of my seat for almost the entire fight as well.

I'm sure there are quite a few I'm forgetting but these are the ones I could think of that haven't already been mentioned.

I know mayweather is not fun to watch, but to be honest the last round of de la hoya/mayweather had me and all my buddies off the couches and on our feet because we thought de la hoya might actually catch him - he was trying so damn hard!

[ThePlugInBabies]

benn-mclellan was sheer brutality. the g-man smashing benn through the ropes and owning him in the first, then benn in the second out of nowhere coming out like a raging bull and catching mclellan with power shot after power shot and hunting him down. 10 rounds of massive punches, brutal exchanges and true heart, only for it to all end in tragedy.

[jabra-cadabra]

Liakhovic vs. Brewster
Pac-Man vs. JMM
Wlad vs. Peter (out of nervousness more than excitement)
