    That moment towards the end of the round where they had just gone toe to toe for about 2:30 seconds then they look at each other touch gloves to show respect and go right back at it. **** gives me chills every time I watch it.....

    As in, during a match?

    No.

    The deaths of Nick Charles and Johnny Tapia shattered me, though.

    Dude, you are so right. When I saw that, I twitted a video link the the round with the exact time code when they touched gloves, saying "that's why I love boxing"

    That moment was special.

    Yes, when Marvelous Marvin Hagler defeated England's Alan Minter to finally win the Middleweight Crown.

    Arguello v. Pryor I was arguably the best fight I've ever seen.

    The only moment I can think of where I was legitimately choked up was when I heard Meldrick Taylor speak at the end of HBO's Legendary Nights: Chavez vs. Taylor. The direct comparison of his speech then and now, the fact that he was still fighting, and him saying he was as good as before made me feel numb for him and his family.

    sometimes being black@slick is not enough to beat an european robot.i think Sven Warddke learn that from Apollo's death and didn't take any chances with Kessler,that's why he headbutted him,he was afraid for his life.

    Any time you get a world title by landing single digit punch stats each round, where the champion is the aggressor and you are outright running away, when the champion is out throwing AND out landing you...

    ..not to mention Don King AND the WBA and Sauerland are involved...

    It was either bought for you or the judges gave it to you out of kindness.
