    actually its something i wanna do to one of my friends who like fighting sports but of course he likes MMA. He says he has never seen an exciting boxing match and well he has barely seen anything.

    I wanna show him some of my collection which is on my parents dvr back home.

    I was thinking of showing him:
    Gatti-Ward I
    Morales-Barrera I
    Vasquez-Marquez II

    that would be great, imagine if you could watch hype towards fights without knowing who won. i wish i never knew a single result

    1. Margarito V Cotto - (A Modern Day Classic)

    2. Mosley V Margarito - (how to dominate an oponent )

    3. Pacquiao V De la Hoya - (old lion v young lion)

    4. Mayweather V Hatton - ( how to slowly dismantle an opponent
    with class and intelegent skills )

    5. Froch V Pascal - ( two journeymen battling limited on skill but
    awesome desire to win )

    The Five Above is a Good Start to show a new fan what the sport is all about different styles and types of performance.
    plus if they are very new to boxing they prob wont know the ols school
    fighters so start them off with active fighters :thumbsup

    For non-fight fans?

    Hagler v Hearns - blood and thunder. If you dont like this fight, you're not gonna like boxing.

    Ali v Cleveland Williams - strange one? Not really, at some point the non fight fan will start asking about Ali. Shut him up with the Greatest's best performance.

    Last one is a toughy, torn between Duran v Leonard I, Leonard v Hagler, Castillo v Corrales I. Probably go for the last one, just so they've got something a bit more recent.
