    Found this one completely by accident earlier this year when I was watching a few of Benn's early fights. Thrilling battle while it lasts!

    Ronaldo Snipes v Lional Washington was a really fun heavyweight s****.

    Several of Marcos Villasana's fights fit in here, especially his match against power punching Jaime Garza.

    Best part of the Washington/Snipes fight is Snipes pretending to be hurt, stumbling into the ropes... Washington takes the bait, rushes in with his hands down... And gets hit with a sneak hook that sends him crashing out of the ring because of his charging momentum. :lol::lol:

    Shout out to Tommy Morrison-Joe Hipp.

    And to Old George Foreman-Pierre Coetzer.

    And nobody often mentions Marvin Johnson-Victor Galindez, a fight I adore.

    I have seen many fights from nobodies that were great to watch in Australia, most of our blokes go hammer and tong.

    Great fight! Campas was a blood and guts guy right up until the end of his career. He had plenty of fights that were worth watching.

    Clay Bey v Ettienne.

    Great action heavyweight fight in the late 90's. Ettienne looked the goods..........before getting dropped numerous times in his next fight, and eventually splattered by Iron Mike
