    Marquez Pacquiao IV feels like it was spiritually part of the 2000s (despite when it occurred).

    Povetkin vs Hunter, despite the draw, it was a great fight, I don't think many would disagree.

    GGG-Canelo II for me. What a tear up, and the skillset of both men on display, beautiful stuff. MUCH better than the first fight imo, and the first was pretty damn good as well.

    All good fights. Very hard to pick a fight of the decade. I remember all of those. Marquez vs. Segura was a classic. I thought Ward vs Kovalev was a great fight but most people probably wouldn't. It wasn't a brawl but a lot of skill on display.

    Salido vs. Lopez 2.
    Pacquiao vs. Marquez 4.
    Inoue vs. Donaire.

    Doesn't change how the actual fight went. But Wlad didn't look shot. A shot fighter is a finished fighter who doesn't offer any resistance. Old, past prime is more like it.

    That's my pick too.

    Lucas Browne one was good, although he was a walking bloody punching bag.

    Tis a good point - generally speaking a decace (60s/70's etc) is taken to be from the 0 thru 9 years.

    1960 is part of the Sixties,
    1970 is part of the Seventies
    etc
    etc

    So the 2020's has got pretty slim pickings so far!

    I'd probably go Zepeda vs Baranchyk for THIS decade so far...
