    My guess is you're are joking for the attention..that is cool.

    ealzaghe-Lacy was the last great southpaw exhibition I have seen. Calzaghe jabbed, slipped, pivoted, turned, countered, threw in combination and beat the crap out a Lacy each and every round. I will to look up the stats. I wonder what percentage of shot Lacy actually landed.

    Thanks

    SRL vs Duran 2.

    And I'm a huge fan of Duran.

    Sanchez v Gomez was marvelous to watch. People forget that Gomez was the favorite in that one. Chava was brilliant. I still get chills over it.
    Duran v DeJesus 3 showed Roberto at close to his best. Beautiful performance by Hands of Stone.
    MAB v Hamed as MAB made it look so easy. Marco previously demonstrated his strategy in the Salud fight.

    Golovkin Vs Ward at present.

    I like fights where we truly do not know who will win.
    At the moment, that is the fight.

    Nunn was getting caught with some nice shots in the previous 3 rounds. He was ahead, but Toney was getting to him.

    Not a shutout or wipeout as revisionist history has said.

    Nunn against Tate was a better performance.

    I'm not sure if its the best but Rigo-Donaire was beautiful to watch (from a real boxing fans perspective)

    I guess I misunderstood the question. My pick was based on a "perfect" fight
    fought on both sides, which made for a great fight to watch, not a one-sided affair.:think

    Sumbu Kalambay's 1988 decision win over Mike McCallum wasn't too shabby.

    That was brilliant. One of the best defensive performances I've seen.

    We should take into account level of opposition. Fights like Calzaghe-Lacy, Mayweather-Gatti, and Tyson-Spinks were dominant ass kickings, but it's safe to say that fighters like Lacy, Gatti, and a 1988, HEAVYWEIGHT version (the guy is a true ATG, but merely a good HW) of Michael Spinks fall quite a bit short to the likes of 1985 Hearns, 1978 Dejesus, 1980 Leonard, 1988 McCallum, etc....
