Hello mate not to be one of them know it all's but Norris vs Waters went 3 rounds i'm pretty sure.


1 Kendall Holt vs Ricardo Torres 2
2 Nigel Benn vs Anthony Logan
3 Terry Norris vs Troy Waters
4 Carl Thompson vs Ezra Sellers
5 George Foreman vs Ron Lyle
6 Juan Manuel Marquez vs Manny Pacquiao 4
7 Michael Carbajal vs Humberto Gonzalez
8 Kevin Kelley vs Derrick Gainer 1
9 Juan Manuel Marquez vs Juan Diaz 1
10 Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo 1
11 Archie Moore vs Yvon Durelle 1
12 Boza Edwards vs Bobby Chacon 2
13 Dave McAuley vs Fidel Bassa 1
14 Matthew Saad Muhammad vs Yaqui Lopez 2
15 Bobby Chacon vs Rafael Limon 4

 

So it did. I remember round 2 being a memorable one but obviously misremembered that it didn’t end there. Will have to think of another! You’re right - two round classics are not that obvious.

 

Great list, D! Corrales-Castillo completely slipped my mind. Can’t believe I forgot that. Marquez-Diaz 1 is a fantastic choice as well.

 

Great stuff. I forgot about Ramirez-Rosario 2 for the four round fight. That’s a great one!

Al great individual rounds Flo, but that wasn’t quite the point of the thread.

 

Alright - yeah I think so brother, sorry. I don’t know if I could do a full 1-15 like you fellas all the violence has kinda become a long featureless highway in my brain with a few pit stops lol. I can’t even tell you how long my favourite fight is without checking it and I’d be here all day if I tired to do 15. All KO’s happen at some point and all of Griffiths go the distance that’s about where my head is at now.

Edit: Also great idea for a thread Jel that is for the guys who have a functioning memory.

 

Sorry about that. Thanks for the correction.
