gomez v pintor trinidad v vargas trinidad v vargas cotto v margarito 2 laporte v castillo gomez v zarate.. holyfield v tyson
Way too many to list, but the 2 fights i watch more than any past fights (recently, obviously every decade theres a couple that have to be watched multiple times a week) The Tito v Vargas and Mayorga fights are cant miss minutes in every round
Those are all great choices, but for some ****ed uo reason srl v hearns and the holy miss tyson fights didn't really do anything for me. Maybe i hate the tyson myth which had previously been exposed horribly and did nothing after being broken. The aura was long gone, if it really existed

Oh man, in 1999 I bought a batch of Ring fights of the year on VHS knowing next to nothing about Chacon-Limon, and when I popped that one in was transcended, and blown away more than watching any past fight. Punch per second volume, brutal exhanges countered with brutal exchanges, both guys especially Chacon's faces pouring out with blood, ebb and flow as each took control and each guy was hurt and looked out of it at times, multiple knockdowns, Chacon finishing stringer on heart and winning it with a knockdown in the 15th. Wild, dramatic fight, and deserved fight of the year over Pryor-Arguello. I only pick Barrera-Morales as my personal fave because I saw it as it happened. If anyone hasn't seen Chacon-Limon IV do yourself a favour and watch it now.
Barerra vs the indian guy. That was one of the most entertaining fights ive seen. Put him in his place.
