    That's so true. I watched Barerra Morales 1 knowing in advance it had been a classic

    Then i sat down to watch what had been described in Boxing Monthly as "too hard to pick" fight between Diego Coralles and Jose Luis Castillo

    That's be far the most frenzied any sporting events ever got me. Felt so lucky to have got to witness that as it happened. 12 rounds of absolute war, then the finish of all finishes. Unbelievable

    The Chavezite king reaffirms himself of having no unbiased knowledge when it comes Chavez or even Mexican fighters for that matter. Why don't you reiterate your score for that fight of how you had Chavez leading towards the 12th and scored Whitaker/Chavez a draw. You pinche payaso.

    How about one in person? :!:

    Place: Atlantic City

    Date: Sept. 29, 2007

    Combatants: Champion Jermain Taylor vs Challenger Kelly Pavlik for the Middlewt. Championship.

    Results: Quite an exciting fight, with Taylor scoring the KD in round 2 & Pavlik's terrific TKO victory in round 7. Being a Pavlik fan, being there in the arena watching in AC, it is a night I will never forget.

    A fight I had a chance to see live, but passed on, Matt Franklin-Marvin Johnson I. Just a ridiculous back and forth, rock'em'sock em brawl.

    On tv: Pacquiao vs Marquez 1, Rios vs Alvarado 1, Bradley vs Provodnikov

    Mayweather vs Maidana was interesting because after 12 rounds I wasn't sure who was gonna get the call

    Live: Froch vs Johnson. Good crowd, good competitive fight.... Second is the tragic Mago fight what a war that was

    A truly gifted fighter. A smooth boxer and a rough customer when he decided to dog his opponent. His unique ability to switch from orthodox to southpaw seamlessly was amazing to behold

    There's just too many of them. Here are a few that come to mind.

    Toney - Jirov that was a back and forth for the ages

    Foreman-Lyle, one of the best slugfests ever

    Vitali - Lewis another slugfest for the ages

    Barkley - Duran - one of my all time favourite fights, still don't know how Duran
    was able to take that punishment and win

    Ali-Foreman - same as above, the shots Ali had to absorb to win were insane

    Gotti -ward trilogy

    Hagler - Hearns - while it lasted

    Chavez - Taylor - what a surprising ending

    and many more. Long live boxing.
