I have that fight but havent seen it yet gonna check it out later

No one is mentioning Gatti surprisingly

Maybe cause they were short fights (Ruelas & Rodriguez) still worth mentioning both of them, The first Robinson fight could have been one of the greats come from behind KO's ever,Gatti hurt him badly twice in the last round but he didnt manage to finish him off, still one of the greatest fights ever would probably be number one on my list had Gatti pull of the last round come from behind knockout.

Ali - Lyle
Lyle was ahead on scorecards, not yet dropped. Ref stopped the fight.

Those Robinson fights seem lost for some reason. Maybe cause they weren't actual KO's but god damn those were epic fights. Robinson was a fantastic boxer.

Robinson used to spar with Oscar back in the day, i remember that Oscar picked him to beat Gatti cause he knew how good Ivan was. btw both Gatti and Robinson known each other way before they fought cause they sparred with Sweet Pea in one of Sweet Pea's camps but they never sparred each other, i bet Sweet Pea had a lot of fun sparring with Gatti.

and Gatti (of everyone) was a damned good amateur in Canada too. Actually very popular when I was there.

Oscar and Robinson fought in the GG finals back in the day and Oscar bloodied him bad. Would've been something to see though, especially with headgear because that's nothing but speed and heavy leather being thrown from both guys, BIG featherweights.

David Izon-Derrick Jefferson

Izon got the hell kicked out of him, then Jefferson ran out of his gas.

Izon landed a few punches on Jefferson who was on the ropes and the red stopped it.

Crazy turn around.

[Brownies]

A few obvious ones :

Matthew Saad Muhammad vs Yaqui Lopez (2nd fight), even tough the KDs in the last round should've been enough to get the decision if I remember correctly.

Toney vs Nunn

Corales vs Castillo

Ward vs Sanchez

Fitzsimmons vs Corbett

Jeffries vs Corbett
