Choose 1 per decade rules: fight must have been a competitive affair even if it ended up in a ko at the time of the fight, neither fighter held WBA, IBf, WBC or WBO titles. Fight was not for a vacant world championship like WBA, IBF , WBO or WBC. Other minor titles are ok. Me: -2020’s: Hrgovic va Zhang - 2010’s: ??? - 2000’s: Sanders vs Rahman - 90’s: Tua vs Ibeabuchi - 80’s : Holyfield vs Dokes - 70’s: Ali vs Norton 2
2010's: Dillian Whyte vs Dereck Chisora 1. Second best fight - Dillian Whyte vs Dereck Chisora 2. Third best fight - Dereck Chisora vs Carlos Takam. Some of you may spot a common denominator in this series. 1970s: Joe Bugner vs Henry Cooper
1970s - 1) George Foreman v Ron Lyle 2) Ron Lyle v Earnie Shavers 1960s - 1) Floyd Patterson v George Chuvalo 2 & 3) The Patterson v Quarry bouts 4) Leotis Martin v Thad Spencer (never saw it myself, but always read that it was unbelievable)
1920s Dempsey vs Sharkey but Sharkey vs Loughran, Wills and other contenders could be picked instead. 1930s Max Schmeling vs Joe Louis or Joe Louis vs Max Baer. 1940s We don't have as many fights filmed at heavyweight here as we do in the previous decade. I'm going to assume Charles or Walcott vs Bivins or Elmer Ray. 1950s Charles v Johnson or Liston vs Williams 1960s Ali vs Jones or Patterson vs Quarry 1900s I'll assume Johnson vs Langford/ Jeanette/Mcvea
30s: Louis/Baer 40s: ?? 50s: Liston/Williams II 60s: Patterson/Quarry I 70s: Foreman/Lyle 80s: Holyfield/Dokes 90s: Bowe/Golota II (Helluva a fight before another shameful DQ for Golota) 00s: Brewster/Etienne 2010s: Chisora/Takam 2020s: Joyce/Dubois
