    Mayorga-Tito was the best one IMO.

    There was a whole lot of tough guy postering in that fight by both fighters. Campbell just happened to do it when Peden was up close and got cracked with a left hand he never saw coming.

    I think it was Jermaine White fighting Anthony Peterson, now that **** was funny... white was talkin all tough right before they touched gloves and by like the 3rd or 4th round asked his corner to throw the towel in! Damn that was hilarious...

    Judah vs Baldomir (since most of the good ones have already been said)

    At the weigh in, Judah is trying to look all hard and Baldo isnt even looking at him, just smiling (lol... and how the ESB'ers ate that up, 'look how scared baldo is' 'hes already beaten' lol)

    Then during instructions Judah hits Baldo instead of just touching gloves normally...

    then goes on to lose in one of the biggest upsets in recent times. I like judah but..... :-(

    My favorite boxer, Fernando Vargas, against Mosley 1. He made a bet with Mosley saying he would knock him out, and when he does, mosley has to pay him 100k extra, and if mosley stopped him, then he has to pay mosley 100k...

    he wound up losing, by stoppage, and had to pay to add insult to injury.

    Rahman-Lewis 2, Rahman got way out of pocket with lewis and when they met in the ring the second time he plain looked scared the way he was trying to block the punches, but my absolute favorite has got to be Vargas vs DLH, that was not just pre fight, that was years of **** talking which ended up badly for vargas

    He wasn't on steroids, he was on a diurretic. Its a banned substance because it helps burn weight unnaturally...its not a performance enhancer.
