Excitement in Boxing, a 4 Part Question.

He made a lot of money for a reason lol many thought he was boring. from a technical standpoint I loved watching him fight.

 

KO’s - Marquez-Pacquaio IV, Zarate-Martinez, Trinidad-Zulu, Tarver-Jones II, Toney-Williams

Fantasy - Frazier-Holyfield, Toney-Qawi, Olivares-Gomez, Marquez-Arguello, Rodriguez-Napoles

Ones that just came to mind right now. Could have half of these being different answers tomorrow.

 

A) Best 3 fights of all time:
More or less happy with my original 3 choices:
1. Still Pryor-Arguello 1, for sure.
2. Could replace Ali-Frazier 3 with Chacon-Limon 4
3. Would still keep Chacon-Boza 2.

B) Best fight I've seen live:
For atmosphere and a historic moment, I'm changing to Holyfield-Tyson 1

C) Yep, stand by these

D) Ditto

E) 5 Favourite KOs:
-McClellan-Jackson 1
-Toney-Nunn
-Curry-McCrory
-McCallum-Curry
-Gatti-Rodriguez

E) 5 Fantasy fights:
1. Duran v Arguello (Lightweight)
2. Pryor-Chavez (Junior Welterweight)
3. Chavez-Nelson (Junior Lightweight)
4. Frazier-Marciano
5. Bowe-Lewis

 

-Duran TKO13 Arguello
-Chavez SD15 Pryor
-Chavez SD12 Nelson
-Frazier TKO10 Marciano
-Bowe KO11 Lewis

 

I like Moon v Galaxy just for the names, but would also be a tough fight.

Predictions?
-Marvin Johnson KO10 Yvon Durrele. Johnson was better than Durelle - easy pick in my view.

-Boza-Edwards TKO12 Danny Lopez. Lopez just to damn hittable and Boza is naturally bigger and the better boxer.

-Érik Morales/Jeff Fenech - at Junior Featherweight? Damn, that's a hard one to call. Morales on points but not with any confidence.

-Evander Holyfield/Joe Frazier - I could have picked this instead of Frazier-Marciano! Erm, Holyfield on points in a gruelling 15 rounder but I can see Frazier winning too. Great matchup.

-Alexis Argüello v Manny Pacquiao - at Feather or Super Feather? Either way, Pacquiao gives Arguello problems early before Alexis figures him out and stops him. Still be a lot of fun to watch though!

 

Most exciting let's see off the top of my head......nelson, Langford, wilde, lewis, b leonard, greb, walker, dempsey, armstrong, louis, zale, marciano, duran, frazier, foster....to start with...

 

a. Top 3 fights of all time:

1. Muhammad Ali VS George Foreman
2. Marvin Hagler VS Tommy Hearns
3. ... either Thrilla in Manilla or Aaron Pryor VS Alexis Arguello 1

b. Best fight I saw live, IMO, is Joshua VS Ruiz Jr 2. I was rooting for AJ, and I liked that he stopped lifting and focused purely on outpointing that fight. Tactical boxing

c. Canelo: Head movement!

d. In terms of fun/exciting to watch,

1. Joe Frazier
2. Roberto Duran
3. Muhammad Ali
   
4. Aaron Pryor
5. George Foreman (90s specifically)
6. Mike Tyson
   
7. Deontay Wilder (only for his KO's)
   
8. Salvador Sanchez
9. Emanuel Augustus
   
10. Roy Jones Jr (prime ofc)
11. Joe Calzaghe
    
12. Marvin Hagler; WAR
