    Who saw Mitchell-Murray last night? A fight of the year candidate, most of you won't have seen it but the link below. It was a fight British fans wanted for years and it doesn't disapoint. I won't tell you the winner, follow this link as I believe it's against the rules to post up full fights:

    So on with the thread - best ever British domestic fights - there's something baout fighting for domestic bragging rights that can bring out some real wars. If you're American, Aussie, Canadian or from wherever and haven't seen some of these fights, enjoy I won't tell you who won if you prefer to keep the suspense.

    Everyone knows about Benn-Eubank 1, Eubank Watson 2, but if you haven't seen them worth utubing. I'd add the following as fights you probably haven't seen, Gomez-Johanesson

    For me, Skelton-Williams I, because it was the first fight that made me bread and was a very good scrap for superheavyweights as well.
