    Naseem Hamed v Kelley
    Benn v De Witt
    Fury v Wilder 2

    Porter v Brook and BJS v Lemieux spring to mind

    Those 2 Benn wins were massively impressive. I'm not a huge fan of his but they were great wins and performances.

    With over 30 years of hindsight Lloyd beating Rosi may have been even more impressive.

    As for my two pence:

    Eubank/Rocchigiani
    Napoles/Stracey
    Louis/Farr
    McCullough/Yakushiji
    Buchanan/Luguna I

    There's been a good few.

    For years the best was always considered Honeyghan v Curry but the way Fury went about dismantling Wilder along with the back story behind it, has to rival it.

    The McCullough one was sensational. How many Britons have won in Japan ?

    Scott Welch vs Akinwande, still brings a tear to my eye thinking about it.

    My personal favourite was degale v Darrell just for the fact I had a lot of money on degale! That’s back when I was a degenerate gambler ha !
