    list some boxing fights which you think deserve a 5 star rating out of 5 from (2000-present).

    i personally list 4 fights who deserve the honour:
    -Barrera-Morales 1 (2000)
    -Gatti-Ward I (2002)
    -Gatti-Ward III(2003)
    -Castillo-Coralles I(2005)
    -Pacquaio-Marquez IV(2012)

    what would be your list?

    That's a real top pick that I would've thought of right away.Katsidis put on a good show against the master too.:good

    But I still think that if you take it on it's merits at the time,Margarito-Cotto was very similar and just as thrilling,if not more.

    Good call on Brodie Chi

    Cotto Torres also a great fight,first time I'd seen Miguel Cotto on wobbly legs Torres was a serious puncher.
