    So imagine you could go back in time and watch five fights from any era live in the crowd front row what would they be.

    Not in any order

    Jake Lamotta vs Ray Robinson 2 - Shame theres no footage of Rays first loss

    Juan Manuel Marquez vs Juan Diaz 1 - What a fight that was the knockout where Marquez landed that uppercut was awsome.

    Ray Leonard vs Roberto Duran 1 - Slugfest where ray decided to brawl with the great Duran and almost won.

    Michael Katsidis vs Graha, Earl - Awsome 5 round war full of knockdowns featuring one of my current favs Katsidis

    Micky Ward vs Arturo Gatti 1 - It was a real life Rocky fight

    SRR and Armstrong in the ring is one thing, but at the time they fought, it wasn't to be.
