    Ortiz Vs Berto was my favourite the knockdowns just kept comin was a brawl but with skill aswell
    Kirkland vs Angulo every punch was a power punch
    Matthysse vs Olusegun kind of one sided but mad excitin

    Bernard Dunne V Ricardo Cordoba
    Jamie Moore V Ryan Rhodes

    The first one got a fair amount of praise at the time but i dont see it mentioned that often here.
    Second one was maybe not as good as Moore's fight with Macklin but i think most people have seen that.

    I remember Toney got a gift/robbery against a guy in 92 in a fabulously tactical fight.
    But the guy's name escapes me.

    John vs. Piriyapinyo
    Ioka vs. Rodriguez

    Maybe these are low standards for this thread.

    But as far as recent, lesser watched fights go, these are standouts.

    Marquez vs Katsidis was a quality fight. And an outstanding performance from Katsidis even tho he was stopped
