    Fantastic fight, doesn't get the attention it deserves, for obvious reasons.

    i went with vasquez-marquez 3, i think it had a little bit higher skill level than corrales-castillo 1 and the ward-gatti trilogy

    it's really a tossup between that and morales-barrera 1 but i went with vasquez-marquez 3 because its probably the greatest 3rd fight in a trilogy ever

    I think its between Vasquez-Marquez 3, Barrera-Morales 1 and Corrales-Castillio.

    I haven't decided yet, I really like Tito-Vargas, so perhaps I'll vote 'other'...:think

    Although its almost impossible to pick a winner i would probably agree with this choice.

    Cotto vs Margarito and Barrera vs Morales 1

    All the others were good but not great

    Corrales vs Castillo 1 didn't really heat up until after the 7th round, up until then it was just phone booth stuff. The thing that made that fight was the ending. Without that it would of been an average fight at best

    Tyson vs Holyfield 1 was just full of Holyfield Clinching every minute, that wasn't a great fight.

    Best first round in any championship fight just to chuck it in was Hagler vs Hearns, nothing will top that pace from bell to bell of that 1st round, only the 1st round though.
