    Which were the best short fights ever? Short meaning no more than four completed rounds. there's a catch as well here. the following are not allowed to he included as they are too obvious

    Hagler vs hearns
    Dempsey vs firpo
    Zarate vs zamora
    Kelley vs Naz

    Lilles v Littles 2 - wild and messy fight but a lot of fun.

    Hearns v Roldan had far more action than Hearns v Barkley.

    Yeah, it probably did but Hearns v Barkley is a worthy entry.
