    Michael Brodie v In Jin Chi was a real classic (the first fight). For anyone who hasn't seen it I would highly recommend it.

    Michael Brodie Vs Neil swain

    Absolutely brilliant domestic fight.
    Brutal fight and ending

    Most of Brodie's fights were great to be honest.

    Didn't last long, only went 2 rounds but Benn v Logan had it all in those few minutes.

    Neville Brown v Shaun Cummings local derby full of blood and guts.

    Remember watching Glen Catley bashing Brown as well with plenty of claret that night - these fights would be £99.99 PPVs these days

    I still think froch Vs Pascal is often forgotten as both were quite unknown on the world scene at the time, never a backward step from both fighters for 3 minutes every round , everybody talks about the famous tear ups hagler Vs hearns, ward Vs gatti, this isn't far behind

    Caveman Lee vs John Locicero, from 1981, is an incredible fight that gets very little attention.

    Agree with arthur v gomez. Great fight. Two very different characters...gomez showed how good he could be when he trained properly and screwed the head.

    Arthur was a good fighter who you could say flattered to deceive a bit was a wee bit unlucky that he faced a fully motivated gomez tho. Gomez would have been class...if he could have lived the life consistantly.

    Didn't Benn get off the deck to win that one ?

    Great shout Shaun, that was a terrific tear up. The first of Froch's wars at World level.
