For me, George Foreman's destruction of ATG Joe Frazier is the best performance I have ever seen in boxing. George Foreman landed with ease and knocked down Frazier about six times. To Frazier's credit, Frazier got up after every knock down (most of those punches would have KO'd other fighters) and continued fighting only for the referee to step in. More recently, Froch's win over Bute was a great performance. Bute was unbeaten IBF champion and Froch had just lost to Ward and not looked too good. Bute was the heavy favourite going into the fight. Froch pressurised Bute from the opening bell, chased him down and landed lots of big shots. After 5 one sided rounds, Froch forced the TKO stoppage. What performances do you guys think are the best you have seen?
While he wasn't on Roy Jones' level I have never seen somebody dominated the way he did against Richard Hall. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TF0l9jSi0lA[/ame] Pacquiao's run of De La Hoya-Hatton-Cotto was sensational in recent times.
^^ Yes, true, Pac had some great performances. Archie Moore vs Yvon Durelle was a great performance by Moore to come back and win after being knocked around the ring for the first rounds.
Bernard Hopkins vs Kelly Pavlik is one of my favorites among many many others. You will probably not admit it now but B-Hop was pretty much counted out in this one by most experts
Mosley tko margarito..... being the heavy underdog going into the bout and margarito being built up like a monster.
including those mutts over at stormfront, they hoped Pavlik was the next great white hope, confusion reigned when Bernard Hopkins , of all the black boxers, schooled him. Ali shouting "Whats my name?" in-between giving Ernie Terrell a thorough beating. Another favorite with Stormfront, no doubt.
Recent fights, I like Mayweather's performance against Marquez, defensive masterclass that made a great fighter look very ordinary

In the past decade, this is the one. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVUWiNGvgNY[/ame] I started to worry about David's well being at the start of the 7th.
Don't know about the best, as there are too many to name. But my favourites Hopkins-Pavlik/Tito, Mayweather-Corrales, Pacquiao-Barrera/Cotto, and a few others I can't think of.
:deal this is it for me aswell. for a guy that was a 3 to 1 underdog going into this fight he put on a beautiful display of boxing, exposed hamed and not by some lucky 1 punch ko he gave him a boxing lesson for 12 rounds mayweather v corrales was amazing to as was pacquiao v barrera 1 sadly
