    What are some of the most technical fights you know of? Real chess matches such as:
    Ezzard Charles vs Harold Johnson
    Willie Pastrano vs Harold Johnson
    etc

    Haha was about to say Charles-Johnson so Charles-Marshall 2 gets my vote. Along with:

    Carbajal-Gonzales 1
    Whitaker-Chavez
    Jones-Mccallum
    Hill-Hearns
    Duran-Dejesus 2

    First one.

    The first Laguna-Carlos Ortiz fight was also a good technical fight.

    Who did you score the first fight for??? I had a draw, but I am also biased as a big appreciator of Laguna. Buchanan answered any questions in the 2nd one however.

    Its been a while since i saw it and my memory isnt very good dont really remember who i score the fight for the only thing i remember is that it was a good technical fight between two world class operators. I also have the second one but have not seen it yet gonna check it out in the near future.

    Hopkins-Tarver, granted it was very one sided.
    Toney-McCallum I
    Leonard-Hearns I and II
    Hearns-Hill
    Mayweather-Judah, became one sided after the first few rounds, though
    Morales-Barrera I, II, and III, all 3 of which occured in war form.

    These are the fights I use when telling people that technical/tactical don't always equate to boring. Just means fought with skill and strategy which they were.

    JMM/Barrera too.
