    Recent, I'd say Khan vs Maidana was a great fight to watch.

    Ray Leonard vs Hearns 1.
    Hearns was the boxer in this one, using movement and outboxing Leonard. Leonard was the stalker, biding his time, turning the fight around round 7 with a left hook (if memory proves correct) and from then on it was all Leonard.

    To a degree, Tyson/Douglas. Tyson did the stalking while Buster picked him apart with jabs and combinations. One of the best clinics I've ever seen.

    Rosario/Chavez. Rosario did trade in close with Chavez only because Chavez forced him to. A good fight to look at when seeing how to cut off the ring.

    Leonard/Hagler. Hagler is one of my favs and I'm a fan of SRL too but despite that, something keeps drawing me to this bout and has me watching it at least 2-3 times a year. I loved the fight though Hagler was faded and it really could've gone either way.

    Hopkins/Pascal. Hopkins smothered Pascal and stayed on him like a tick on a dog w/out the proper protection. Hopkins cut off the ring well and I hope he wins the rematch clearly and controls it this weekend.

    Khan/Maidana. Great fight even though Khan fought a dumb fight. Maidana found him quite often but Khan hung in there edging a close fight he could've won wide had he used his talents more.
