    I'll go with Ali v Foreman

    I never appreciated just how big this win was for Ali until George told me his thoughts and why he never wanted a rematch.

    Closely followed by Hoya v Sweet Pea, mainly because it was my first PPV and when i really started following boxing.

    I have lost count how many times I have watched Pac-Hatton. I have 3 copies of that fight with Top Rank, British and HBO commentary. Just love seeing all the reactions in the crowd after the knockdowns.

    Also Tszyu-Mitchell 2 was a classic. Zoo was an underdog going into that fight and had all but been written off after the 2 year layoff, and just destroyed arguably the best JWW in the world at the time.

    There are so many.
    Fenech V Nelson 1
    Shannan Taylor V Cory Johnson was non stop.
    Corrales V Castillo 1 was a great

    Home grown would have to include Ganoy V Onikeke

    Heaps more. Not one standout.

    Hagler v Hearns for mine. Luv it. Ding ding....straight into it, no excuses at the end. What a war it was. Fights like that no one loses in my opinion.
