    Earl vs Katsidis

    Never get tired of watching the beating Earl takes then out of nowhere BOOM he turns Katsidis legs to jelly. Unbelievable fight.

    The good thing about living in the internet/Youtube era is that there's less chance of a great fight being lost to history. Who knows how many wars from the 50's and earlier were never filmed and we'll never get to see?

    Even fights like Monshipour-Sithchatchawal can reach a large audience these days.

    John Garfield probably has a list of 50 that we've never even heard of.

    I just watched for the first time a few days ago the two Eubank vs Thompsons fights, damn was I amazed!

    I think that Pacquiao - Morales I should get more love, I wouldn't say it's underrated but I feel that the Barrera-Morales and Pacquiao-Marquez get more credit, not sure any of these fights are better than this one.

    Martin Rogan v Matt Skelton was one of the most enjoyable fights I've ever seen. Partly because I'm a Rogan fan but **** me that fight as just old school heavyweight slugging with both taking bombs round after round until Rogan finally broke Skelton down and KO'd him.

    Not a great standard of fight but that's what I love about boxing, any standard can provide serious entertainment and this fight absolutely did just that.
