    I thought both Leonard-Hearns fights were great
    The first one for the Skill,versatility, momentum shifts
    and the dramatic finish
    The second one had great action with both guys hurt on multiple occasions

    Wow. Tough crowd.

    Just curious, but can you give me an example of something you would call a 'great fight'?

    Ibeabuchi-Tua: Excellent fight, but it lacks something to make it worthy of being called one of the best in HW history.

    Round 12 of that fight was immense. I have to disagree.

    Hamed v Kelley. It WAS a great fight, but not really the barn-burner it was made out to be IMO. Even though Naz was going down and so upping the drama, he never looked hurt to me and I never had any doubt at any point that he wouldn't stop Kelley sooner or later. Compare that fight to say, Castillo v Corrales when you genuinely had no idea who would win, there is a great difference in my opinion.
