    Which fights put you in a real dilemma because you were a big fan of both fighters? What did you think when the fight was first made, did you want to see it, and how did you feel about the fight and result?


    For me it must have been Lennox-Tyson, but I was probably more inclined to Tyson because I thought he needed the win more. Looking back, it's probably one of those fights that I don't really know what to think about. It's almost as if it didn't happen.

    I would add Pacman-ODLH as a minor dilemma. Usually I support De La Hoya but I give Pacman respect for taking this fight and I generally rate him highly as a fighter, so I think I would actually want him to win this one. Tough choice.

    I guess draws aren't always bad!

    I don't want to see Kessler-Abraham. Don't know whom I'd support.

    Morales Vs Marquez if it happens....... I would hate to see Erik lose this fight. But marquez losing would be just as bad.... I still want to watch it though!

    Pac-Marquez...
    I can't really choose between the two. Always results in good fights that never leaves me disappointed though.

    The best one can think of is Wayne McCullough v Scott Harrison. I liked both fighters and going into it I was edging towards WM to win. But the beating that Harrison dished out that night was savage.

    How about the Vazquez-Marquez trilogy and the Morales-Barrera trilogy? Wasn't this a dilemma for so many Mexicans?

    Chris John vs Jorge Linares

    great fight, don't know who I'd want to win. I believe both are good, but in a fight there has to be a loser. Unfortunately in boxing once you lose, you're thrown in the garbage.

    Ouma/Jantuah was tough for me..... I was hoping Jantuah became world champion but I was also a Ouma fan... Even though I was slightly leaning towards Kofi... still tough none the less...

    not that I can remember. When you have fighters like those four you know you are getting a good fight and everyone is the winner. Not 2 mention all four at the time they faced each other were on the same timeline. I think if one was about shot and the other one was younger then thats when i see a dilemma. Kind of like the one i see in Diaz vs JMM. Im a huge Diaz fan but JMM needs this win since he is older and only has a few fights left. However Diaz also needs this win to stay a credible opponent at 135. 2 losses to the top dogs would make him a B fighter in my book. I say Diaz fights Campbell to try to get his titles back and JMM ****s up that Funeka guy instead then rematched Pac and gets the official win once and for all.
