    Heavyweights dont interest me that much.

    Although most of Holmes fights are quality.

    I see where you're coming from.

    Surprised actually that people haven't mentioned fights like Ali/Foreman more (I think this along with Hagler/Hearns is the most overrated in history)

    ali post Frazier I, is utter boring to watc IMO except Manilla.

    Id rather see amazing skills than pure workrate and slugging. Hagler Hearns is great for 1 round, but even then I like AA vs Pryor I round 1 better

    It is just taste.

    Everyone is different. Id rather watch Arguello vs Kobayashi than Foreman Lyle, whats wrong with that?

    Nothing, but saying you don't LIKE Foreman-Lyle is different from saying you'd rather watch Arguello. Foreman-Lyle is a great way to kill half an hour with your brain in neutral!!

    I dont like it, I'm not syaing its not a great fight.

    But when I watch a fight I would prefer to watch skill rather than having my brain in neutral. You get me?

    Yep, I'm just having a giggle with you. If I sit down to to watch a bit of boxing for a few hours I tend to mix and match the slugfests in with the boxing to break things up a bit.
