Definitely seconding Earl and Katsidis. I like short fights where you don't know who's going to win and there's a ton of drama. Here's what I can think of at the moment. I think these are all readily available on YouTube and worth the watch: Paul Samuels vs. Cello Renda: Regional level bar brawl with a double knockdown, absolute insanity, 0 defense and tons of heart and effort. I just really like watching this fight. Nigel Benn vs. Iran Barkley: Awesome 1 round fight. I would have liked to see it go on. Travis Walker vs. Chris Arreola: I always liked Walker, he was big and had some quick hands and good power. 3 round slugfest here. Really fun back and forth. James Kirkland vs. Allen Conyers: Insane one rounder here. Crazy action. Crazy crazy to see a prime James Kirkland be absolutely rocked by a local fighter.
Apologies if this has already been posted - but Roy Jones Jr vs Montell Griffin II is a very nice, very quick fix - a more aggressive, higher risk taking Jones than we were accustomed to seeing, firing the left hook lead almost exclusively with THE baddest intentions:- This content is protected

I enjoyed all your picks thanks very much! Some of them really show how tricky it is to be a ref sometimes although the stoppage of Kawoya vs Meekins was crazy! Martin Murray vs Cello Renda was a total barn burner! Tough lads giving it everything! It's fun watching more obscure fights as I don't know who won before I watch them.
@Blofeld Glad You enjoyed them. I write down those type of obscure fights, as it's easy to forget about them as time goes on.
That first knock out was brutal, looks like Avelar broke Kim's nose? No idea why the ref bothered counting... The second fight I felt like Ibarra was never going to get out of that corner in round 1!
Shocked me too. The best championship level short fight I think. That is that the two of them really tried to destroy each other. Not one sided.
