    What's the best fights you've ever seen, that most people haven't?
    I'm going on holiday next week and want to download some. Mostly coloured ones please.

    Hard to say this is classic after all, and while some guys like to talk boxing rather than watch full fights anymore a good many of us have seen a good many fights and I am sure some overlap.

    So 2 fights but I am sure many have seen them....but not discussed a lot

    B & W
    Gaspar Ortega vs Benny Paret I

    Unfortunately it is uploaded in several compartments so you have to switch each round or 2

    Great war that seems to have been forgotten to an extent and notable because only 18 months later Kelley had a similar fight with Naseem Hamed.

    I would agree that this is a great fight. Just not sure a fight of the year qualifies as a hidden gem? But a very fun fight either way
