    Saad-Marvin's first fight in Philly immediately came to mind.
    As I've said in previous posts, if you were a judge trying to score this fight, throughout the first half of the fight, wouldn't it have been virtually impossible to give either one a round? Save one or two. I'll have to watch it again but if a judge, after say round 8, had it scored 1-1-6 I wouldn't necessarily disagree. Tho I agree that, if at all possible, you have to give a round to one or the other but this one was one for the ages. My $0.02

    Add to the list the first Charles Williams-Sosa fight. Stopped by the ringside physician due to the physical damage BOTH fighters had received.

    Jorge Linares against Antonio Demarco was a brutal give and take affair, with Demarco being drubbed and outboxed for several rounds and then the bout momentum completely swinging the other way as Linare's face explodes and he begins to wear down physically...

    Yeah, Choi Chung-il. Boza, Limon, Chacon, Navarette, and Choi were trading that belt back and forth really fast. Pretty much every fight involving any of those guys fighting each other was really exciting.
