    Can't remember. I think I might of, but not really in depth as I would like it. I've been watching Hasegawa at the moment. I'll watch it again and post, maybe!

    The original vid I watched was removed for some reason. I think the Japanese version has thousands of views lol. Joe was extremely popular over there.

    I will post in a bit but man that was a solid rec, rounds 3-7 were top notch and well worth the half hour

    The Lyle v Foreman handbag slinging

    The Wlad v Fury tear up

    Lol... only joking !

    Gotta be Lyle v BGF

    and whilst not quite a tear up I always thought Holmes v Norton a great fight to watch.

    While not a total outright war, rounds 5/9/10 are definitely worth including into this category- Jofre vs Medal I

    Saad vs Lopez 2
    Johnson vs Saad 1
    Chacon vs Limon 4
    Holyfield vs Bowe 1
    Gatti vs Ward 1

    The guys listed on the left are my personal top 5 most exciting fighters (in any order) and these are imo there more entertaining fights. I have a couple to get through as well. Some others would be.

    Moore vs Durrele 1
    Patterson vs Ingo 3
    Vasquez vs Marquez 3
    Mancini vs Kim
    Moorer vs Cooper
