    Probably not born yet. RJJ is the most physically gifted fighter of all-time.

    Tito shot on Mayorga was nice. Im not buying Oscars stoppage at the hands
    of his business partner as a legit shot.

    yes steve quinonez and the fight with alfonso sanchez where he was losing every round k.o. him out with one single body shot also broke his ribs.

    Gatti against Dorin was not only brutal, it was a truly beautiful knockout. Picture perfect, and one of my favorite Gatti moments.

    I agree one thing ward could do was go to the body. He was an excellent body puncher. I would say the best of this generation.

    First post, and I'd just like to say "Waaaazzz Up" to everybody on the boards here. Glad to be here and I'm looking forward to talking about the Sweet Science. With some Knowledgeable boxing fans for a change (I blame ESPN). Which btw is getting harder to do outside of the internet. Now I'm actually surprised that nobody has mentioned Cotto's left hook body shot vs Quintana. At 00:50 u can actually hear the "HULK SMASH" in the background. That's how hard of a body shot it was.

    Man when Hop hit Hoya with that shot I could believe the impact it had on Oscar body. Even Oscar couldn't get up, but he could only hit the canvas with his glove. That made Jones vs Hill look like nothing. J/K that **** was faked and everyone should of got there money back

    My favorite is Jones-Hill.

    I also liked Arguello-Kobayashi.

    How come no-one has mentioned Hatton's KO of Castillo and Ward's knockdown of Gatti in round 9? Both of those were pretty brutal.
