    Led Sr to step into the ring, in a three piece suit (of course), during one of Jr's fights and tell him to stop hitting the other guy in the head. Said something like "The ref should be stopping this I don't know why he isn't. You need to end this but you're not going to do it by hitting him in the head. Hit him in the body only".

    Carl Froch v Jermain Taylor. In last few seconds of last round. Incredible.

    Jeff Harding vs Dennis Andries 1.
    Andries had rebuilt his career at Kronk and was giving a career best performance…Harding blocked every punch with his face before turning it around in the last round and stopping Andries.
    Jackson vs Castro was special too.
    Also, I’d throw Jackson vs Graham in as well…ref was looking to stop it before Jackson flattened him.

    Perhaps not the best, but one of the most dramatic and renowned was Chavez vs Taylor.

    They HATED Eubank that much, as did so many across the nation, that toppling him seemed to matter more

    I think Moore-Durelle is the mic drop.
