    I'll never forget that name :yep.

    He's my favourite current Jap fighter, merely for his kamikaze warrior mentality.

    How did I forget about Ike/Tua & Pryor/Arguello? :patsch

    Kevin Kelley vs Derrick Gainer is a great fight too.

    If your mate is new to boxing then it would be better if he understood and watched some pre-fight hype to build expectation and then show him the fight

    Maybe start him out on 24/7 or fight camp 360

    If you just want to show him a fight then I'd probably go for Benn v McClellan

    Gainer/Kelly is above Mckinney/Ncita actually, and if Castro/Jackson wasn't so ****ing mental, it would be the number 1 surprise ending I reckon.

    I'd recommend that fight to anyone, actually. Really good action and an amazing finish which is completely out of nowhere.

    Pawel Wolak V's Delvin Rodriguez
    Nonito Donaire V's Fernando Montiel
    Luis Concepcion V's Tyson Marquez and Concepcion V's Manuel Vargas because his flip is cool as ****.
    Mitchel V's Murray
    Kendal Holt V's Julio Diaz
    Morales V's Maidana

    I think thats a good mix of action from this year.

    How about Gainer-Norwood for strange endings?

    I love that fight. Madness all the way through and although no ending like that should be condoned, the little **** Norwood got what he deserved. Plenty action too.

    He's watched a few fights with me before like Haye-Valuev, a couple of Khan fights. But none have really been entertaining, thanks for all the suggestions btw.

    :good

    Not so much a fight but this or any GP video is worth checking out.

    after a couple of fights, if they seem interested pick any of esb's sunday clinic fights, they're always great to watch, once you can appreciate the skills
