    As a 15 year novice, dont think I can give the full spectrum of HBO over the years but have some great memories from the fights they have shown would be great to hear the forum show their love and share their best fights, moments and KOs.

    I'll start with

    Pacquiao Vs Bradley trilogy
    Hamed Vs Barrera
    Hopkins getting punched out of the ring.
    And of course Hattons American adventure.

    Chavez-Taylor 3-17-90, Tyson Douglas 2-10-90, 2 historic fights within a month. Many more but that is off the top of my head:ARMS1::ARMS1:

    "This would be the most satisfying moment of Oscar De La Hoya's career. If he could finish this guy. If he could make Fernando Vargas eat his words. If he can knock him OUT! And he does!!! Oscarrr De La Hoya has the most satisfying, the richest, the biggest, the most emotional win of his whole career!"

    "I got a question. You got any excuses tonight, Roy?"

    "I'm from Philadelphia"

    I’ll always remember the August
    1990 triple header, where Pernell Whitaker KO’d Juan Nazario to
    become IBF, WBA, WBC
    Lightweight Champion, and
    Hector Camacho and Meldrick
    Taylor were on the same card.
    Chavez-Taylor I was unforgettable,
    even though the result broke my
    heart.

    I'm heartbroken, man. I've literally been watching HBO boxing all of my life, my earliest memory is the original B.A.D theme song playing in the background while me and my dad watched the rise and falls of Oscar DLH, Felix Trinidad, Lennox Lewis, Roy Jones Jr and many more. I always tried staying up for the main event as a kid but most always fell asleep, except for a Trinidad fight. I'm 26 now and I'm sad to see it go.

    I always got hyped when this theme played.
