    Honestly you putting loads of full stops at the end of every sentence in a desperate effort to make your moronic posts appear more profound, is just embarrassing.

    Surprised no ones mentioned Cotto/Mayweather. I thought that was a good scrap.

    Halger vs Duran
    Nichols vs Wilder

    I know what you're thinking controversial choice, but that's probably the Duran fight I turn too more than any other that showcases his boxing skill.

    Another vote for De La Hoya v Mosley I. One of my favourite fights ever.

    Usyk vs Briedis for a more recent one.

    I want to put Gassiev vs Dorticos as well, loved that fight but maybe Dorticos' skill could be questioned in that one. Don't get me wrong, he fought well at a high pace and played his part in an epic fight. But he lacked a bit of variety IMO and mostly just threw big one-twos all night. He showed great work rate and tenacity rather than skill. Gassiev on the other hand, unbelievable skills.
