    I'm looking to get/download my Dad 10 or so classic fights that he can watch over from say the past 20 years. All out wars! Mega fights! Boxing clinics! You name it!

    What were some you can think of?

    p.s. PM'd links would be awesome!

    Cheers

    Great list, we have a few of those at home already which we pull out every now and again. Corrales Castillo 1 is pretty popular!

    No love for Gatti-Ward 3? Although not as good as 1 I thought it was still a great great fight.

    I hate to say it, but I don't honestly believe their first fight was as good as it is made out to be. Undeniably great, but it wouldn't crack my top 15.
