Classic Cruiserweight Fights: Vote for #1 Fight

Lee Roy Murphy v Chisanda Mutti was a good one, double knockdown too at one point

Are you counting the IBO?

If yes:

Carl Thompson v Ezra Sellers

 

Haye vs Enzo was an all action if short lived fight!

 

1. Holy-Qawi I
2. Toney-Jirov
3. Sellers-Thompson
4. Adamek-Cunningham I
5. Huck-Afolabi II

I'd love to put Holy-DeLeon on that list as its Holy's best performance imo but it wasnt very competitive. Hernandez-Cunningham & Hernandez-Ross were excellent fights last year.

Cruiser might not be a great division but it does produce great fights.

 

The first Holy-Qawi fight is number 1 without a doubt IMHO.

Theres a pre fight interview with Holyfield, then in his early/ mid 20s, where he says he's only going to box for a few more years so he can get enough money to open a car dealership. 20 years later he's still fighting.

 

Haye getting of the canvas to beat Mormeck in his backyard is a nice CW fight.

 

When Mormeck was a huge favourite on a Don King show - Afolabi-Huck 1&2

 

11 kids, 3 divorces, a record label & a mansion with its own bowling alley dont come cheap Gaz

 

I nominate Johnny Nelson v Carlos DeLeon. This was one of the most closely contested boxing matches I've ever seen, they matched each other punch for punch for 12 rounds and both men thoroughly deserved the draw.

 

I love Manny Steward's commentary during round 12 of Toney-Jirov.

 

What?

 

Thanks :good
