    hopkins vs trinadad:subtle and effective.didn't even know what was being painted till later in the fight.

    tyson vs douglas:was being painted from jump but you couldn't believe it

    hamed vs barrera:craftsman showing every flaw in the hype.

    Lewis-Tua: masterclass from Lewis, given that he was 35 and approaching the end of his career

    Hopkins-Pavlik: B-hop proved the haters wrong, not for the first time

    Pavlik/Martinez was CLOSE . No one was dominated .




    A lot of people felt Shavers beat Ali from what I hear . I've never seen the fight myself though....

    Great picks. Bhop had me in awe; He made it look easy. I honestly expected that dominance from Barrera, but not from Hopkins.

    I thought Hopkins would win, but in a very tough fight.

    Another one that involves the great tito getting schooled is against winky. They both made tito look average.

    One of the finest boxing masterpieces I've ever witnessed was Calzaghe's schooling of Roy Jones. The way Calzaghe stayed in the pocket like that despite having the most brittle hands in boxing was quite remarkable. The gap in fundamental boxing skill was huge, Calzaghe displayed terrific lateral movement and combination punching, clowning Jones with slick showboating along the way.

    Tapia vs Konadu is a ****ing schooling, Tapia boxed like Willie Pep in this fight.

    Duran vs Palomino is a great, beautiful performance and a masterpiece imo
