How about Dick Tiger and Torres. And Michael Spinks and Qawi. And John Henry Lewis vs Al Ettore from the classic section.
For an example of a murderous body attack. I loved watching Eddie destroy Johnson to the ribs with that left hook. I was also a bit amazed at how nonchalant Eddie threw that right hand and how open he left himself without getting hit in return.
Eddie was at the short peak of his game and interest at this time. His combination of power, fluid skill and old school moves were most impressive. I'd love to ask Johnson to compare Spinks and the two Muhammad's for both power and ability.
the andries harding trilogy...and was eubank thompson light heavy??..i remember that being a ceracker tho my memory may be playing tricks..
no, that was at cruiserweight. The interesting thing w/ Eubank was that he was #1 rated wbo lh at the time and could've gone after a Michalczewski bout.
Conteh-Finnegan I is definitely my favourite light-heavyweight fight. A real grueller- Chris was still a live contender and this was the fight where John introduced himself to the world class league. A great great fight.
