    Perfect example is of a fight that gets little reonginition is Merqui Sosa vs Prince Charles Williams I. Only modern era fight i know that was stopped because both were to beaten up to continue. No winner it was a techinichal draw. No one ever mentions this unique war.

    Israel Vasquez v Jhonny Gonzalez

    Criminally underrated fight.

    It was a classic.

    Meldrick Taylor's second fight with Chavez was great but it doesn't get the recognition it deserves.

    Hagler/Obelmejias

    Tyson/Ruddock 1 & 2 were wars.

    Tarver/Johnson 1 & 2 were entertaining I hear I'll check them out.

    Great fight with lots of momentum swings. However, that one got adequate recognition as it was the main event on Showtime, was a foty candi and was discussed for some time.
