    In terms of "when it happened" excitement, it might have been my favourite too. It was a jaw dropping moment.

    All great moments.

    I'd like to honorably mention Kermit Cintron taking a knee from a "headbutt", in the process counting himself out as he protests.

    i would put corrales there and ofcourse the shot of dela hoya quitting in his stool

    great call for morales switching southpaw in the pacquiao fight. Had he not turned southpaw in rounds 9 and 12 and could have beaten pac 9-3

    The Hopkins Trinidad KO nearly made my list. Good pick.

    Great list.

    One of my favourite moments was from this year. Shane Mosley bowing to each side of the ring after he does the unthinkable and ko's Margarito. Giving it a bit of ' I told you so'. QUALITY

    I hate Hopkins, but that was awesome I must admit...

    I still think Mayorga dropping his hands and eating flush left hooks from Tito, then mocking him with a little dance afterwards is the greatest achievement for any man, ever, in any walk of life..

    i like that! mosley bowing to each side of the ring.. and oscar quiting on his stool..
    i also pick marquez going to the wrong corner after pac knocked him down down in round 3! that was just classic right there.. and darchinyans interview after donaire kod him saying that he wasnt hurt
