    Calzaghe-Kessler (wild pace in that fight!)

    Tyson-Douglas (something was with that night. It just felt like something was going to happen, men noone expected it to be what happened)

    Andrade-Bute (that last round and what looked like a magic Hollywood ending, ended up beig as far from a Hollywood ending as Guillermo Del Toro's Pan's Labyrinth)

    Trinidad - Hopkins, at that exact time experts like Emmanuel Stewart and steve farhood were calling him the Modern day Sugar Ray Robinson because he(apart from DLH) Anihilated and knocked out every fighter put up against him and unified every division he ever fought at and just knocked out in brutal fashion what most people believed to be the no.2 middleweight of the world and looked the goods to unify the middleweight division

    Hopkins really shocked the boxing world that night like no other

    I rated DeLaHoya/Quartey pretty high, particularly round 6 when they exchanged Knockdowns... Then the 12th when Oscar put him on the canvas, then rallied but couldn't quite put him away! I feel Quartey should have taken that decision (Although it was damn close), then we could have seen a rematch! :yep

    Hatton/Tszyu was another classic, fukn heart-breaker ending, though... Hitman starting strong, Tszyu picking him off and taking the middle rounds, even leading at the start of the 10th... Before Hattons youth saw him finish strong... :|

    This generally only happens when I'm watching a fight live, (it's just not the same otherwise) and the biggest ones I recall are:

    Gatti-Ivan Robinson I. Just a crazy fight.
    Barrera-Morales I. Ditto.
    Gatti-Ruelas.
    Hamed-Kelly.
    Mosley-Oscar I.
