Which bout throughout history provides all of the ingredients below...and explain what these ingredients were, and why you chose said bout. Beginning. Middle. End. (Possibly an 'Introduction' aswell...if there was an interesting story developing before said bout). :good
Margarito vs. Cotto Beginning: The rivalry between Mexico and Puerto Rico. I remember the buzz on these forums before the fight and it was really exciting. Middle: The fight itself was great, but it had a beginning, middle and end in itself. Cotto dominating, the fight getting close and then Margarito stopping him. Great fight. End: The end, although it asks many questions, it also very intriguing. All the questions are now about the wraps, so there's a lot of interesting things to mention post-fight too.
The Thrilla in Manila is one of the best examples IMO Beggining: One of the biggest build up's in boxing history. The rivalry between Frazier and Ali was intense, words were flung about mercilessly, particularly by Ali. The tension was massive, and perfectly set the stage for what was one of the biggest fights of all time. Middle: The fight itself? Pretty self explanatory. An absolute classic, thriller, war, betweem 2 great fighters. The skill, determination and heart shown in this fight is unmatched even to this day. It is remembered by some as the greatest of all time, and rightly so too. The End: The aftermath of this fight was not as epic as the build up or actual fight, so takes a back seat here. But it was clear that this fight had a massive impact on history (going down as one of the ATG fights), and physically took a lot out of both fighters. It was the end of arguably the most competitive trilogy of all time, and it's legacy will be remembered forever.
B-Hop VS JC Beginning: Both long reigns at MW and SMW are highlighted and some noise about how they were destined to meet in the ring. Big hype during Hatton VS Money press conference. A lot of racist remarks stiring the media (Kuklux Klan and Afro Americans at war on the streets at night, streets on fire, police with water canon). "I never let a white boy beat me" stiring a lot of controverse throughout the whole world!! Middle: The fight itself, with a lot of drama, the knock down of JC would be shown as if he was almost KO'ed. JC came back and fought very brave. A bloody battle with JC struggling a lot but earning the hard fought split decision. JC collapsed in his corner holding on to his ring LHW belt covered in blood in a coma for 2 days with his family worrying. The end: B-Hop returns to Philly where his Afro-American brethern surround him with bats and knuckledusters about to bash him up for embarrasing them for letting a white boy beat him... Bhop: "oh ****..." Credits rolls
Louis vs Schmeling II Beginning: With all the tension between USA and Germany. Louis - a black man - was adopted by American fans as the symbol of America as a land of opportunity. In contrast, Americans perceived Schmeling and his ties to Hitler as an obvious threat to those opportunities and ideals. Middle: Louis, having lost the first fight, pounced all over Max. The German didn't stand a chance. He only managed to throw two punches for the entire (albeit short) fight, and was knocked down three times. Louis was at his absolute finest in this one. End: The Louis victory was seen as so much more than a victory in a boxing ring. It was a victory over fascism. A victory for America over an evil empire. It was learned though, that Max didn't share the same views as Hitler...Max and Joe were friends for many, many years after.
Loser Vs Bender prologue: Tim Loser, despite his last name, was an up and coming boxer in the mid 70's in the middleweight division. Due to his last name he was often ridiculed and no one gave him the time of day. With no family or friends, and just overcoming a drug problem, he was determined to turn his life around and become the champion he knew he could be. Not just in boxing but life. After a streak of wins he was scheduled to fight Mike Bender in a fight that would determine the number one contender to fight for a world title. Beginning:Loser came out strong in the first but got so nervous he **** himself everywhere in the ring, struggling to keep the **** from flowing everwhere. he was unsuccessful and ran out of the ring completely embarrassed. As he made his ran frantically to the dressing room covered in **** the crowd was screaming and chantinig "LOSER LOSER LOSER LOSER", pelting him with anything that wasn't nailed down. Middle: in the dressing room he ran too his toilet throwing up his guts due to incomprehensible embarrassment. Just then he heard a noise at the door. Surely this day couldn't get any worse could it? End: It did. The bathroom door was kicked in and standing in front of him was a grizzly bear in a trenchcoat with a doublebarrel shotgun pointed at his face. "i lost money on u loser. and i ****ed your girlfriend". The grizzly bear raped him for several hours until he blew Loser's head off.

Tim Loser vs Mike Bender II Prologue: after some reconstructive surgery Loser got his head pieced back together piece by piece. He looked like a monster but he was alive. but being alive does not mean ur living. with a now hideous grotesque face and the embarrassment of a life time he became a hermit. he hit the bottle again. for years he was a raging alcholic with a morbid fear of grizzly bears with no hold on life. However, things were to change in his favor. 4 years of the incident that changed him forever he went to rehab where he met Girls MaGee. Girls MaGee was a sweet beautiful girl who just happened to become his AA sponsor. "I love horrific pieced together faces" Girls MaGee exclaimed. "Let's ****." and they did. together they beat alcoholism and instead of confining in a bottle, they found someone to confide in each other. Soon they were engaged and Loser even decided to start hitting the gym again. it was then Loser learned that that terrible night 4 years ago may of been a blessing in disguise. Not just because it helped him find his dream girl, but the reconstructive surgery gave him a near indestructible chin. You see to piece his head back together metal plates were used on his chin and skull, he literally had an iron chin. Plus now he had something to fight for. He had Magee, now he just needed to get his pride back! after a streak of impressive wins, along with the comeback cinderalla story of a lifetime, Loser fought his way to a title shot. A shot against the title holder, his arch rival BENDER!! and the fight was scheduled the day before his wedding day. it was reckoning day.... Beginning: Round one started. as they left their corners, both supremely confident, Loser looked in the audience as his soon to be wife was cheering him on screaming "LOSER" to his face. Just then Loser **** everywhere. Middle: extremely embarrassed he ran from the ring, being disqualified, as the audience screamed "LOSER" and pelted him with everything that wasn't nailed down. He got to his dressing room and locked himself in the bathroom. He heard Girls MaGee come in the other room. she knocked on the bathroom door, "baby i love you. i dont care what happened. forget boxing, we are getting married and i cant wait to spend the rest of my life with...." she was interrupted by a knock on the door. Loser just sat in the bathroom in disbelief of what just occurred as bride to be answered the door. The End: Just then he heard a huge bang, like a gunshot. Terrified Loser dropped too the bathroom floor as he heard heavy footsteps inch to the bathroom. just then the door bust open and standing before him was a man in a trenchcoat with a double barrel shotgun, behind him was Girls Magee dead on the floor. "GIRLS MAGEEEEEE" loser screamed! SHUT UP!! the man said as he hit loser with the bunt of his gun. "who are you" loser wimpered. "Im a grizzly bear" he replied, pulling off his human mask. and i hate your face. He shot Loser dead.
