    Mine might just be Vasquez/Marquez.

    Awesome fights with some great finishes and brilliant action.

    I would easily have said Vasquez-Marquez as well, but they fought four times.......love those fights, though.

    Haugen-Pazienza was pretty good

    Ali-Frazier is almost too obvious

    The standard is of course Zale/Graziano. It is shame that not everything is on film...

    Holyfield/Bowe is a personal favourite though.

    It has to be the brutal Zale/ Graziano wars, that were so savage ,that both Tony Zale
    and Rocky Graziano were both never the same after ..

    Yep, my apologies. It was just that I was re-watching the third fight and forgot that they had a fourth fight when I posted this. ;)

    @ mcvey - Great shout. :good

    Ali-Frazier is indeed obvious but still my all time favourite.

    And yes,Haugen-Pazienza was pretty awesome.

    Andries-Harding was another good series. Not much of the sweet science but action packed. I thought that Andries was slightly unlucky in the scoring for the third one but it was close enough for arguement.

    I thinks it's Barrera-Morales for me.
    I love the very underrated Zaragoza-Banke trilogy too.

    I don't think Zale was the same going in Bert , that why they were competitive.
