Favorite Heavyweight Title Fights

The rematch was, not fight one.

 

Louis v Braddock...talk about guts.
Douglas v Tyson...it's all there. Masterclass.
Holmes v Norton...great boxing and slugging.
Holmes v shavers...how did Holmes turn it around!
Frazier v Quarry...great action, good breakdown.
Ali v Foreman..wise defiance
Marciano v Walcott. War and drama.

 

Not my first or last mistake...oh well

 

Weaver vs Tate...behind all night & a Great one-2 by Mike ends it & ruins Big John

Ali vs Frazier I & III- Two fights that were for more then the Heavyweight title. The fights were personal blood feuds.

Ali vs Williams- Not a good fight, but to watch Ali demonstrate near perfection in the ring.

Holmes vs Norton- This was better then any of the Ali vs Norton fights, IMO. The changing of the guard, in the Heavyweight division.

Klitschko vs Brewster I- Brewster standing up to the bombs landing on his chin, and then coming back to flatten Wlad. Brewster may have lacked skills, but man what a heart and punch.

Dempsey vs Willard- Dempsey was a killer in the ring. No slow starting and feeling out. Dempsey wanted to kill you.

Louis vs Conn I- If Conn didn't have so much Irish in him he could have been the Heavyweight Champion. All it took was one mistake, and Louis unleashed those short deadly combinations.

Louis vs Walcott I- Walcott was so smooth. Loved watching him do the 'cakewalk' as Don Dunphy put it.

Just a short list, but so many more...................

 

Not the first one.

 

Title fights B.

 

Watched the Lewis - Klitscho fight last night, a real war of attrition.

 

We lie in hiding ,like a Leopard at a drinking pool ,waiting for an unwary deer.
