    Honeslty after watching this fight live I almost had tears of joy in my eyes, I never ever thought someone could making boxing such a beautiful and graceful sport... I always realised boxing had a lot of grace and hidden beauty to it but this fight brought it to another level. I was astounded by Lomachenko... Sosa is a very good fighter... forget about the quality of the opponent for a second, this for me was the most impressive and beautiful performance by any boxer ever.

    Pacquiao vs Hatton for the wrong reasons. We all thought Hatton was seriously hurt and my mum started crying. Fight still haunts me now after 10 years.

    being excited with anxious anticipation I understand. being concerned about a fighters health as he is being battered I understand. I dont understand crying at a sporting event.

    Maybe if you bet the house and the kids college fund, and lost.

    Oh I was there live for this one too with a friend of mine. If there is another fight we both go to let's go to a bar and get drunk.

    Not the last 20 years, but Billy Collins Jr.’s last fight fits that bill for me.

    Many passing of the torch fights have the same effect, even in instances when I cheered against the loser (Oscar vs PAC, Morales vs PAC 3)

    If any fight brings you close to tears, then I think it's time you start thinking about gender reassignment

    I disliked Haye before that fight, he gained a new fan afterwards, the spirit of a true warrior and heart of a lion.

    Let me guess that censored word starts with an F and ends with T?
