    Nothing blew my mind and sent me into orbit as did the 1994 massive come-from-behind KO that George Foreman pulled off against Michael Moorer on HBO........ When Foreman landed his bomb and Moorer hit the deck in round 10, I popped a giant woodpecker........ Peace...

    Its hard to pick just one but recently the one that comes to mind is Hopkins - Pavlik.

    Hearns - Duran, and i don't think this one needs rehashing.

    a pre-prime pacquiao moving up in weight and demolishing p4p#3 barrera in his best weight infront of a pro mexican crowd...

    to the point the barrera doesnt want to exercise his rematch clause...

    Yup, instead he'd go on to cement his legacy against Erik Morales. Good shout, I knew you'd throw Manny's name out there, but in this instance, it's justified.

    :lol: You're such a Galaxy fanboy, Flea.

    ...Dunno how Cooper took those uppercuts for as long as he did against Holy. Brutal, brutal stuff.

    It's mainly for laughs now:lol:Was a quality performance mind.

    Was just saying today how Holyfield literally fights like a superhero! The Cooper fight is another example of him losing a round massively but not trying to bide himself time but to actually try and win the round: Awe-inspiring stuff. His accuracy, punch variety and speed is something to marvel at for a Heavyweight, and more than makes up for his lack of 'thudding' power.

    Yup. Holyfield was special. He just hit a road block against Bowe, who somehow stayed right with Holyfield every time the action would heat up. Holyfield wasn't used to seeing that.
