    Modern classic. Sometimes this site is guilty of snobbishness and the age-old bollocks of old-school is best, it happens with all forms of art, music, boxing, whatever.

    Fact is, classic forum or not, this is a classic round of boxing.......

    great fight,too bad that they had the three knockdown rule in this fight cause Barkley couldve continued and it would be even better.

    Fun, yes, but not classic!

    This fight is 19 years old though, so it does have its place on the board, no doubt.

    This fight qualifies as "old school".
