    It's tough to think of a better example.

    Does JCC vs Camacho qualify?

    No doubt but that was not the same Naz.

    The younger (i.e 'Prime') Naz was much more patient, didn't just stand in front of his opponent, throw his power shots and hope they landed.

    Good tactics from Barrera though, he knew if he went in for a tear up (a la Morales) he'd get banged out, very good skillset in general and beat Naz hands down 10-2 on my card, plus the point away from Barrera in the final round 9-2.

    Maybe.

    I think any fight in which Mayorga or Roy Jones got clowned could be on here as well.

    Barerra/Hamed

    Bradley/Witter was very satisfying too.

    Witter schooled? It wasn't exactly schooling...

    Kessler-Andrade
    VK-Peter
    Quintana-Williams maybe

    VK's kind of unorthodox in his own right. I like Kessler Andrade.

    Not better examples than Barrera vs Hamed but good examples...
    I think Trinidad's and Oscar's victory over Mayorga, and Forrest's win versus Mora.

    No where near on the same level as Barrera/Hamed. The Brad/Witter fight was far closer, though Bradly diservedly won. I still think if he was in a better frame of mind and his run up to the fight had gone better Witter would've dominated Bradders.
