    Normally you see the what's your favorite fight topic , thought I'd put a spin on it and ask what is your favorite amateur fights and post it

    I've gotta go with this just because the skill level on display is insane and it's like a masterclass in timing over speed

    Kostya tszyu vs Vernon Forrest

    The World’s Amateur Final 2011 in Baku

    Anthony Joshua going into hometown favorite Mogomedrasul Madzhidov and both men went all out.
    In the end Madzhidov took a close controversial decision.

    Rigondeaux's entire 2004 Olympic run was dope. Dude looked like he barely broke a sweat.

    Always enjoyed Meldrick Taylor vs Adolfo Horta, very fast paced competitive amateur bout. Horta would have been a good pro fighter, really liked his style.
