I wouldn't label myself an experienced observer (merely a lad trying to learn; boxing is vast) but I do love myself some Monzon.

Monzon-Benvenuti I is a great technical battle with decent spurts of action in it as well. FOTY for 1970, IIRC. Anybody wanting to learn about Carlos Monzon should watch it, then watch his destruction over the Italian in their subsequent re-match.
