    Holy vs Qwuai was one of the best performances of all time in my opinion. Tua vs Ike.....Ward/Gatti...Marques/Vasques.....JLC vs Coralles......Boxing is a great sport.

    Vitali VS Kingpin = the greatest losing performance almost made me wanna puke... I never experienced that, that's why the greatness :D

    Allthough with Clottey, the acid started to boil in my stomach...

    Klitschko/Lewis

    Didn't know Vitali had that kind of heart, especially after the Chris Byrd fight.

    Richie Woodhall losing against Markus Beyer, after Woodhall got put down in the first and twice in the third including being bundled down in the third as well, it didnt look like it would last much longer. Woodhall showed great heart to come fighting back and having Beyer hanging on in the end to make it a very close fight losing 113-114, 113-115 & 111-115

    Michael Moorer did the same thing vs holyfield in the rematch. I can't recall how many times he went down but he kept gettin up. Good thing the corner stopped the fight.
