    Right as I'm bored and haven't got much work on thought I 'd pop up one of the old best of so far. I'll probably forget a load but for me

    Dean Francis Vs Tony Oakey
    John Simpson Vs Paul Appleby
    Nadeem Siddique Vs Martin Gethin
    Amir Khan Vs Micheal Gomez

    Know I've missed loads these were just good en's off the top of my head.

    Yeah I was tempted to put the Enzo/Haye fight in there just on pure stature of event but elft it out as it was a bit of a blow out.

    It may have been a blow out, but think back to how excited you were watching the 1st round, knowing that at any moment the fight was going to explode, and it did. BIG TIME. The new star of british boxing was born that night.

    We have had some very good fights this year. It would be hard to pick an all British great fight for each division.

    Yeah I originally left out Haye/Enzo because it was a bit of a blow out, and Murray/Meager cos it was a bit one sided but I'm putting them back into the mix now!

    For the event -

    Haye V Enzo

    O2 Arena

    Big build up

    ALL THE MAIN TITLES ON THE LINE

    All the celebritys ringside - including Frank Bruno who was arching his neck to get a better look of proceedings.

    I don't think he will fight again

    He had the biggest ego of any fighter at domestic level - he only won the vacant title in December because Jamie Moore wanted a Euro shot (still not ****ing happened!) and thought he was Oscar de le Hoya :rofl

    Anthony Small is also deluded, he won't even get to domestic level, wasn't he beaten by Bradley Pryce down at Commonwealth?

    Yeah he seemed a bit arrogant.

    yeah Small got beat by Pryce, although he (Small) looked goodin his fight last week but I can't see him going much further than domestic level with his defensive frailties
