    That's a great list with a lot of thought and effort put into it. Well done.

    Calzaghe vs Lacy will always be the "beat-down" fight for me. Ever more so because Lacy was the favourite for the fight.

    Pac vs Margo was more savage, but in terms of class nobody did beat downs quite like Joe.

    Couldn't say. I'm just going by the numbers. The last Mayweather fight I saw was the Cotto fight in 2012. I haven't seen his last six because the dude bores the **** out of me.

    I read that Lacy was something like a 1/2 favourite going in. Moreover, Lacy was being billed as the next American superstar of boxing, with many American boxing writers and fans were saying Lacy would knock out Calzaghe in 5 or 6 rounds. Yet, when all was said and done on that early morning, Calzaghe thoroughly ruined Lacy and took his soul. :sisi1
