    Was Hagler-Hearns a deliberate omission?

    Great list, I would have Ali-Foreman in there as well

    From your list, Frazier-Quarry

    thnx, I'm glad somebody enjoyed them. When I was making the list I was surprised how easy it was to find great 1st rounds actually.

    I went with Mancini Frias...beat out Frazier Quarry 1 only because I thought Quarry won that round fairly clean

    William you should be congratulated for all the effort you have put into this.Difficult choice between both Frazier v Quarry fights.Pryor v Arguello and Mancini v Friars.Just because i am a huge Quarry fan i went for Frazier -Quarry 1.Just like to add loved the old champions getting introduced before the Frazier v Ramos fight they used to do it a lot back in the day.Should be introduced again when boxing gets back to normal eventally

    Thank you my friend. It was a lot of work putting the lists together, but it was fun. I felt like I was watching one thriller right after another. Glad you enjoyed it. I liked it when they used to introduce the boxers former and present back in the 60s too. When did they stop doing that? the 70s?

    Mancini - Frias in this group. Explosive stuff. Tough call though over Frazier-Quarry bouts.
