    Usyk-Fury I, because it's relatively recent. I thought Usyk was going to lose after the 6th round, but he came back strong - I have rarely ever been so excited.

    Usyk-Joshua II
    Marciano-Walcott I
    Marciano-Moore
    Marciano-Charles II

    One of my favourite fights of all time.. Kessler 1, Groves 1, Taylor & Johnson fights are all fantastic too..

    Forgot how good this one was.. absolute war.. its kinda forgotten about this one when people discuss his career, respect to Johnson also, he needs a shout out for all the classics he's been in too:

    Chavez vs Taylor 1. It was the first boxing match I won and it's ingrained in my head. There might be a few fights I might consider more entertaining, but they are not core memories like that fight.

    I honestly don't care. Couldn't give a crap. It's not something I ever have or ever will given any thought whatsoever. Why would I there are far more important things to devote my precious time to? It's dumb. Asinine even. Pointless. Completely meaningless. I've watched countless fights so how could I even truly know? And even if I did have a favourite and I could whittle it down to just one and at the end of the day it's all subjective so what's the point in sharing it on these boards with others who might agree or disagree?

    Jake ''Money'' Paul vs Mike Tyson no doubt

    This question always brings two answers for me.

    Favorite short fight is Hagler - Hearns

    Favorite long fight is the 4th war between Bazooka Limon and Schoolboy Bobby Chacon.

    There are lots of other fantastic fights but for me the drama of the lead up and the even better action in the ring make these my top fights.
