    I'm trying to compile a list of fights or series to watch before the summer is out

    I have a two sided sheet of fights and serieses all from pretty much the 90's on

    I want some suggestions I know the classics like Barrera Morales and Corrales Castillo and so on but what I'm looking for are more like closet classics like FNF or boxing after dark or Sho box fights fights with little hype or attention that were good

    Or fights that were really close and worth scoring I have some I have seen and wanna revisit some i have not seen

    Without naming what i have so far i have

    Pascal Froch
    Taylor Froch
    Martinez Margo
    Santo Alcine
    Judah Baldy
    Clottey Margo
    Paul Williams Martinez
    Mayorga Tito
    Shane "Vargas 1
    Ouma Phillips 2
    Phillips Quartey
    Raheem Morales
    Tyson Ruddock
    Lennox Bruno
    Peter Toney
    Byrd Povetkin

    Tua vs Ibeabuchi - One of the best HW fights of the last 15 years and one of the most underrated. 2 young, undefeated HW prospects in a close, hard fought battle.

    Pacquiao/Morales I is a great fight and the epitome of a close but clear decision. You should be able to get to 115-113 Morales. It's one of the few close fights in the history of this board when the cry of robbery was not heard.

    Jones/Tarver I is a good test of your scoring style. Some very tough rounds to score. Also some of the most dramatic action of Jones' career.

    Dawson/Johnson I is another good, close fight and very underrated as a punchout.
