    Tua/Lewis

    I havnet totally forgiven Tua for his effort that night. I thought he would be able to get inside under Lewis reach eventually and break him down.

    Tyson-Holyfield (Thought it would be over in a round or Evander might even be killed, I was only 12 at the time tbf)

    Wlad-Fury
    DLH-Pac
    Hopkins-Trinidad
    Tyson-Danny Willams
    Barrera-Hamed (Thought Naz's power would be too much for MAB, never been so happy after a fight and seeing that little arrogant bully being humbled was special)

    First fight between Leon Spinks and Ali
    Hagler vs Leonard (how one judge scored it 118-110 Leonard is beyond me)

    I didn't even bother to watch Joshua Ruiz.

    When the rumors started to trickle through, I had to scramble to buy it!

    Martinez/Cotto
    I didn't consider Sergio's knee injury seriously enough. I felt like at his best he could beaten Miguel who hadn't proven himself at that weight. Some friends even warned about Martinez injuries and I dismissed it. Not my best moment.

    Honestly i believed Wlad had enough left to win and I still belive if they were to rematch Wlad would KO AJ.
