Great fights without great fighters

Awesome topic.

I see your examples and I raise you:

Ward Vs. Augustus* - Bunches and bunches of punches!

Bennt Vs. Morrison - I'm throwing this one in because it's a classic example of discounting the underdog, and the favorite eating their words.

*I argue that these men may be popular, but their records tell the story.

 

gatti-ward all of them except the second it want as good

mytwanga vs villa last year that was a figh and a half

katsidas vs graham earl that was some fight memorable for mickay vann hrowing away the towel

marquez vs vasquez all of them weregood

 

Ward - Augustus was the first one that came to my mind as well.

 

gomez-arthur

freitas-barrios

chi-brodie

 

Sithchatchawal-Monshipour
Lee-LocCicero
Murqui-Sammy Ahmad
Taylor-Anaya

The list goes on...

 

I challenge anyone to beat this lesser known classic:

Brandon Vera vs Andy Lee

 

Gatti v Ward fits here I think.

 

Haugen-Pazienza 1 & 2

 

carabajal vs gonzalez

 

Frankie Liles-Tim Littles 2
Kevin Kelley-Derrick Gainer 1
William Lee-John LoCicero
Arturo Gatti-Ivan Robinson 1
Arturo Gatti-Wilson Rodriguez
Arturo Gatti-Micky Ward 1
Micky Ward-Emanuel Burton/Augustus
Michael Moorer-Bert Cooper
Michael Gomez-Alex Arthur
Sergie Liakhovich-Lamon Brewster

My all-time favorite fight is Diego Corrales-Jose Luis Castillo 1. I think that qualifies, as I consider both "very good", but not in the "great" category.

 

I don't think Vasquez vs Marquez goes in there, they are 2 top 10 p4pers..

 

Nice one. Might throw Chan-Hee Park vs. Guty Espadas into the mix, too.
