    I came on this thread with the intention of suggesting Matthew Saad Muhammad, seems Cheeky was thinking of it already and Gaz and antcull got here before me :happy

    boxingdvdvideos has it cheap. He may be listed under Muhammad Saad Muhammad, strangely :lol: It mightve been updated, I did alert the guy who runs it.

    Only problem is it takes a while to dispatch. Top notch sets though :good

    Roberto Durans is a must have as well. I mean, tons of classics with other ATGs at the peak of their powers, you will see some of the most able fighters of all time doing some mind blowing stuff if you get this one. Evander Holyfield and Alexis Arguello are pretty essential IMO as well.

    Yeah I'd take antcull up on his generous and potentialy life-affirming offer, and Gaz's 'idiots guide to torrenting' and roll with Slip for your first two points of call.

    These two were stunningly capable operators. One of THE dream matches, like Ali Vs Tyson.

    Not yet, but in a few years time Carl Froch's set will be worth getting!

    Joe Louis....

    watch how the greatest fighter of all time used speed, power and timing to break down virtually everyone. Beautiful to watch- like poetry in motion.

    Chang beats most Flys IMO, despite the Russian being a tidy operator from what I've seen.

    Yep, nearly a hundred years gone by and his textbook punching technique has never been bettered IMHO.

    The peter buckley career set is well worth the 400 pounds (250 discs) and will keep you going for a while.

    On a serious note, the Cotto career set is my favorite, I could watch him all day long. I'm like you, don't understand how to work the torrents.

    best ones I've got are Hagler, Gatti, Barrera, Carl Thompson, Naz, Hearns, Duran and RJJ (ignoring recent fights)

    Calzaghe's aint bad either tbh

    I ain't got a friggin clue how to use torrents either.
