    What are some of the best short fights ever?

    I'm looking for fights that went for less than 4 rounds but were nevertheless great fights.:bbb

    A few examples I can think of would be

    -Hagler vs Hearns (an obvious one)

    -Moorer vs Cooper (awesome brawl)

    -Liles vs Littles (wild,wild fight)

    Any others come to mind?

    Bloody obvious one.
    It should have been one of the first examples I used.

    Any of Tyson's early-knockout victories.

    The Berbick fight in particular is magnificent, that fight alone debunks the myth that "anyone who stood up to Tyson beat him".
