    No real order.

    Pryor-Arguello I
    Trinidad-Vargas
    Barrera-Morales I
    Gomez-Pintor
    Olivares-Kanazawa II
    Saad-Johnson I
    Saad-Lopez II
    Vazquez-Marquez III
    Chacon-Edwards II
    Chacon-Limon IV
    Corrales-Castillo I
    Jofre-Medel I
    Marquez-Pacquaio IV
    Sanchez-Gomez
    Harada-Jofre I

    Very difficult to narrow it down. I’ve got a lot of honorable mentions and to be honest I think 6-7 different fights would appear if I was asked to do this list in a months time.

    Funny that, I looked today and couldn't find it myself.

    I saw it when I was younger, my pops had it taped

    I remember years ago the then Ring mag chief editor Nigel Collins named the best fights he had seen and Saad vs Douglas was one of them.

    Been looking for that since then but i cant find it anywhere.

    At ringside. It was under Duran vs. Viruet at the Spectrum. A great fight. A lot like the Kates fight. Franklin 77-80 stops Braxton. I have no doubt.

    I saw it at ringside under Duran Viruet. It was a lot like his fight with Kates. I have no doubt 77-early 81 Franklin KOs Braxton. He was a killer.
