    No top 100 can be complete without the Mando Ramos v Sugar Ramos 10 rounder as well as the 10 rounder between Boza Edwards and Roberto Elizondo.

    I don't know - didn't know that was something I could do. If I did it, it was by mistake! Is there a way to reinstate? Apologies McVey!

    It was a great fight because both were doing what they wanted to do. Negron dropped Pipps with a body punch and hurt him to the body several times. Pipps made him pay coming in, landing clean combinations. I thought Pipps could have shaded it but a draw was the most fair decision.

    Thanks Escudo!

    That's the second time those three fights have been mentioned. Toney v Jirov should be in there - that's one I forgot. And Ward v Augustus too. Now, against my own judgement, I'm putting Sanchez v Gomez in as well.

    Shavers vs Lyle at Heavyweight is a personal fave.

    Brewster vs Ettienne is also a great Heavyweight fight.

    Ali-Foreman deserves to be on it. It was a great fight.
