    Corrales vs Castillo has that back-and-forth drama.

    A fight the same year as Gatti vs Ward 1 that was arguably better Dorin vs Balbi 1.

    How about some that are equally as violent, but feature far more skilled and elite combatants?
    • Pacquiao-Marquez II and IV
    • Inoue-Donaire I
    And just plain ole violent:
    • Provodnikov-Matthysse
    • Castillo-Corrales

    A more recent one that’s still before 2019 is Tommy Coyle vs Daniel Brizuela. Cuts, point deductions,
    8 knockdowns and a spectacular finish...

    One I have never heard mentioned for great fights is Dave McAuley vs Fidel Bassa in the 1980’s. They had 2 fights. The second one is great but the first one is absolutely brilliant. The twists and turns are unbelievable and heartbreaking.

    Watch these and you’ll thank me for it...

    Wasn’t Trinidad vs Vargas an all out war from the beginning to the end? It was awhile ago I watched it but I know both got dropped before Trinidad took over and finished Vargas.

    Or are we just talking wars that went to a decision?

    Have actually watched most of pacquiaos fight, not to mention Inoue.

    Will definitely check out the other 2 on the list
