    Love this topic for me Bernard Hopkins vs. Félix Trinidad Sept of 2001, My dad was screaming I told you I told you he would win!!! I saw passion in my dads eyes. I still have the newspaper clipping he gave me from that fight. That day I knew I wanted to take up the family tradition.

    Foreman vs. Moore was quite inspirational.


    Chavez vs. Taylor 1 for it's brutality.

    Castillo vs. Corrales because it was just beautiful.

    Leonard vs. Hearns 1.
    Carlos Zarate vs. Rodolfo Martinez.

    Manny vs Margarito - Confirmed to me Manny possesses some type of ancient mental knowledge. He is able to feel no pain during a fight and visualize punches with pin point accuracy. This requires a life time of mental development less than 5 humans on the planet can reach. ****in brilliant to watch this guy. Enjoy every second you can.

    Barrera Morales I - near the time I was fighting at or right above that weight, inspiring, and just awesome to watch. Mayweather Corrales was inspiring only from a technically brilliant standpoint, but I would never want to fight that way.

    Castillo's pressure on the toes style was very inspiring. Kind of showed a blueprint how to beat Mayweather. Boucne and two handed volume punching up and down and angles is the only way to break the philly shell down.
