    2006 gets overlooked when it comes to having notable great fights but IMO these 3 are some of the best wars that you can get. All of them still get underrated but they’re really worth checking out. For those who have not seen any of these yet I highly recommend giving these a watch.

    All great fights. My favourite of them is Moore-Macklin. A British title fight that was worthy of world honours for the action that unfolded and as conclusive a KO to finish it as you could wish to see.

    I was at Moore-Macklin, incredible fight. I really wanted Jamie Moore to step up and win a world title afterwards. Great fights in the OP, all of them. Nice one Flo.

    Duddy vs. Campas...Now that is a fight I haven't thought about in a long time. Good calls on all of these, though.

    All three are top 50 ever but to me the best is Monshipour vs Sitchatchawal thats top 10 ever.

    Not that this means anything but I have Moore-Macklin just outside my top 50, Duddy-Campas around 75 and I don't have Monshipour vs Sitchatchawal in my list at all. Not that it isn't a great fight - it obviously is - but it just didn't do it for me as much as the other two. Maybe I need to watch it again.

    Already 20 since these fights took place. I still think 2006 was an underrated year for boxing especially when it had to follow up with the year that had Corrales vs Castillo and Pacquiao vs Morales. 2006 had plenty of great fights besides the ones listed.

    One of the best HW bouts of the 2000s took place in 2006.

    Also the rematch of Tomasz Adamek vs Paul Briggs.
