    For you? Two spring to mind for me..

    Kovalev v Alvarez stands out considering Kovalevs out of ring issues & where his career was..

    Williams v Hurd was a brilliant display by Williams

    Any others stand our for you?

    This one stands out for me too, a man imo past prime training hard to prove something to himself and he did, like you say hes got stuff going on that would indicate to me that even for the Alvarez rematch he wasn't 100% mentally but got his head down and trained hard !

    Its hard to comeback against the same fighter that's just KO'd you too, so its nothing but plus's for that fight

    Juan Francisco Estrada beating Srisaket Sor Rungvisai a lot more decisively than the scorecards had it.

    Kovalev and Williams most inspiring, Spence perhaps most impressive. (And I know that's debatable given the size disparity.)

    Inoue's destruction of Rodriguez is the front runner.

    I thought Prograis looked phenomenal vs Relikh. I know he was heavily favored, but Relikh had never been stopped and is a scrappy, tough, solid dude. Rougarou absolutely obliterated him, and it was the semis of the WBSS. I expected him to win, but not that easily. Great performance in my opinion, he had everything working.

    I certainly couldn’t argue with J-Rock either. He looked great on Saturday vs Hurd. Also, a great performance. Terrific all around boxing display.

    Can't see that answer being beaten. He really did put on a master class against a very dangerous guy. Although Runvisai's tactics were a bit strange...
