    Top 10 fights I've seen for action, skill, and drama (mostly action):

    #1. Duran-Leonard I
    #2. Chacon-Boza Edwards II
    #3. Barrera-Morales I
    #4. Chacon-Limon IV
    #5. Ali-Frazier III
    #6. Vasquez-Marquez III
    #7. Corralles-Castillo I
    #8. Pryor-Arguello I
    #9. Hagler-Hearns
    #10. Saad Muhammad-Lopez II

    It's tough to rank great fights, but whatever order, these would probably be my top 10, with Leonard-Hearns I and Gomez-Pintor right off the list.

    There are older fights worth mentioning I have only seen parts of, both Robinson-Basilio wars, the Basilio-DeMarco fights, Moore-Durelle, the Zale-Graziano series, and Marciano's first fights with Walcott and Charles, as well as Louis-Conn.
