    The one I enjoyed most was Williams/Sprott 2, the small hall atmosphere was excellent, biggest, not sure, but Froch / Bute was quite big recently

    Mayweather-Mosley.

    Atmosphere at the MGM was crazy all weekend long.

    Biggest can also translate to most important or most exciting. It doesn't have to be how many were there.

    example given - if you were at Castillo - Corrales I or if you were at Pac - Clottey, the variables are different. Tell me the fight that meant the most to you when you were there, and why, and how nuts the fans were, atmosphere, intensity.

    How about when Mosley nearly dropped May?

    Bonkers.

    I had to do the self reach around examination to see if I actually crunched out a rosebud. Thankfully it was a false alarm.

    Biggest in terms of boxing importance would be Ward/Abraham. Title fight, Super Six, Armenians waving tons of flags countered by chants of "USA, USA." A great experience in all.

    Biggest in terms of excitement/anticipation: Rios/Alvarado. SoCal was pumped for that fight and the crowd was absolutely electric. HBO did a disservice by drowning out the crowd and making viewers listen to Lampley.

    Williams vs. Martinez 2

    Rematch of a very good fight - Crazy atmosphere - Middleweight Championship - Great Ending - and a Picture with the Champ after the Fight! Perfection for myself.

    Froch-Bute for the fight and the atmosphere, Cotto-Margarito 2 for the setting and grandeur!

    Wlad - Haye.

    Crazy atmosphere, **** talking with my friend who is Wlad fan, brits making it sound like Haye was the hometown boy and all that.

    Great event. Even when the fight didn’t deliver, it was exciting to watch as both were capable of KOing each other at any moment.
