    Nah, the Rahman v Lewis 2 knockout is much better. A lot more iconic.

    Love Moorer vs Foreman, not only because I'm a fan but also because the punch looked almost slow motion and Foreman was clearly pregnant during the fight.

    Actually it's not. In the second fight Lewis did exactly what he should have done in the first one...he dispatched a fighter who was little more than a journeyman. I never understood why Lewis received so much credit for this win. You're talking about a guy who got Ko'ed by Oleg friggin Maskev, twice! :D

    Foreman vs. Moorer is hard to beat.
    Ali vs. Foreman was huge too.

    George is the definition of "The Thrill of Victory,,,,,,The Agony of Defeat.."

    wow, I didnt realize Bruno was such a horrible boxer until I saw this video

    pure steroids with out any boxing skills he was extremely lucky to be a champion in a home town decision against another not a great champion

    there were many better boxers who never become a champion due to not being so lucky with opponent as a defending champion

    That was at the end of the fight, Frank always tired late on.He clearly won that fight and Mccall never dsiputed that.
    Wild accusations of steroid abuse there, can't see it myself.
    He was the first guy to SERIOUSLY hurt Mike Tyson, not just once either. Bruno was no ATG but he deserved his moment.
