    For me it was Bruno V Tyson 1, I was an absolute nervous wreck.

    Margarito vs Cotto. I wanted so much for Antonio to prove his critics wrong, and I knew he could do it. I just felt that Cotto was winning easily until Margarito hurt him, and I was going absolutely crazy. I didn't see the knockout coming though, but when I watch the fight back (I've seen it a good 8-9 times now), you see how Cotto was fading. Those short little uppercuts that Lampley was saying was being blocked and missing, in the slow-mos you see them landing. That's what made the difference.

    Hatton v Mayweather.

    Followed all the build up, paid the £15 to watch it, stayed up to 4am and made a night of it with some mates round and a few beers.

    Morales-Pacquiao. Was dying to see it made and I went to it.
    Tyson-Holyfield. I was living in Chicago and I planned a trip home to California around it so I could watch it with my brother.

    I'd have to say Hatton v Mayweather in recent times, that was months of anticipation.

    Tyson v Lewis is the other one.
