Most Underrated Great Fight?

John Stracey/ Marshall Butler
Mando Muniz/ Oscar Alavarado
Jose Napoles/ Roger Menetrey.
Jean Cluade Bouitter/ Bunny Sterling.

 

Ummm... no. Not underrated at all.

 

Muniz-Albarado a good one. Muniz-Barajas perhaps even better.

 

Napoles vs. Muniz I is a very underrated slugfest.

 

interesting remarks

 

Mike Rossman vs. Luke Capuano I. Also Yaqui Lopez vs. Rossman.

 

Nestor Garza vs Enrique Sanchez. The fight plan Nestor deployed is brilliant. My good friend, the man in the hat in the Garza corner, conceived it, taught it, and wrote a chapter in the book on how to beat a southpaw with your left hand. Good fight.

^^^^ Nestor Garza's fight with Kozo Ishii is one of the most brutal fights you'll ever see.

Are you sure man, I seem to remember Roger doing extremely poor here. Well, Napoles doing extremely well, and out-classing Roger. He didn't land anything big to my memory.

 

SO what I meant was, as if proof were needed that Napoles was a great fighter, this fight rubber stamped it, front page of the Boxing News that Friday, and I can still remember it all this time later, " Napoles shows his class " Roger was a barrel chested strongman of a fighter, almost a WW version Chuvalo, you are are right it was one sided, because Jose made it that way, he put on a master class of hit and not be hit, totally outclassed a more than worthy contender, never had he boxed more fluid, so in that sense it was great, to see a fighter at the very top of his game.

 

Harold "The Shadow" Knight. There's a blast from the past.

 

George Feeney v Ray Cattouse in 1982. It was legendary for a few years after but is now never mentioned. The crowd at the Albert Hall were standing after each round.

 

All I could find was a 5 min. clip on youtube.

 

There's a longer version on Youtube somewhere Billy. You get the second half of the fight. Some great commentary from dear old Harry Carpenter too.

 

Haven't found it yet. Still looking.
