    I'm sure one of the Robinson-LaMotta meetings would have to qualify.

    Imo it was one of these three (without going WAAY back into time):

    1) Ali/Foreman
    2) Ali/Frazier
    3) Hagler/Hearns

    HMMM NO!!
    Gatti-Ward is like Bika-Codrington. Exciting, yes Superfight, no.
    A superfight is a fight that involves big names in boxing and turns out to be an exciting fight.
    Morales-Barrera
    Vasquez-Marquez
    Hagler-Hearns.

    Best Superfight IMO would be Hagler/Hearns

    Most important and significant match-up would be Louis/SchmelingII.

    As was said rather well by Jimmy Cannon:

    "Louis was a credit to his race that night; the human race."

    Easily Ali-Frazier 1

    Not only was this two undefeated heavyweight champions and a perfect clash of opposite styles; but this was a cultural and social phenomenon. No other superfight had these type of dynamic as the first Ali and Frazier fight.
