    I'm talking like 4/5/6 rounds, max?

    Naz/Kelly springs to mind. That fight was so exciting (like many Naz performances).

    Even though Kev was past his best he still brought it and gave a great account of himself. Was also good to react to getting dropped/being the nail for a change.

    Your turn...

    A wild fight which showed both fighter's power as well as vulnerabilities. Bert was always good to watch but people tend to forget what a exciting fighter Moorer was when he first moved up to heavyweight.

    the fights where they start to brawl in round one don't last but a few rounds.

    I am not sure why the fights which start off early don't last, but I think when they are full of energy and start to brawl is when they spend up most of the big energy. Most fighters who start off fast in round one would not last long. If GGG and Canelo decided to fight that way.. It would benefit GGG. but I don't think Canelo would do it.. and I don't think GGG would want that either.

    Fantastic fight!

    Moorer showed heart and Bert was landing some heavy leather.
