Recommend Me Some Fights, Part Deux

Any more information of what You're looking for?
Any specific era, division-range and level of competition (Like championship level fights or some obscure, lower level scraps also?)

 

Marlon Tapales vs Pungluang Sor Singyu: not quite as obscure as possible, as it was a championship fight and quite recent (2016), but these two fought a horrid fight with both down multiple times. It's awesome. Defo one I need to revisit myself, actually.

Efetobor Apochi vs Brandon Glanton: this was a brilliant war at cruiser. Usually I'd scoff at higher weight stuff too, but this isn't the run of the mill, hold and hug contest. These two threw bombs none stop all night and it was probably deserving of FOTY last year.

Alfredo Marcano vs Hiroshi Kobayashi: probably not too obscure to us, as Scar, Rough and perhaps yourself have already scored it on the scoring thread. But it's a great fight, so if you haven't seen it, definitely change that. Very clean punching and lots of momentum shifts.

Bernard Hopkins vs Gilberto Baptist: I stand by my proclamation that young Hopkins was a very exciting fighter. Big, strong, fast and a monster workrate. Him and Baptist fought a really good fight shortly after B-Hop lost to Jones.

Danny Lopez vs Shig Fukuyama: Can't go wrong with Danny Lopez, right?

Alberto Davila vs Kiko Bejines: maybe not as a war, but it was a very fun and competitive battle with Davilla showing some really nice boxing and I love seeing his style in full flow. In fact, it seems his biggest fights are against guys good enough to not allow him to maintain that rhythm, but when he did get into it, he's got one of my favourite styles.

 

Ha, ok - let me try.
I re-watched two fights between Jose Luis Castillo and Stevie Johnston lately. I think They are extremaly underrated and showcase some of the best infighting You'll see.
There are two other underrated title fights that I always recommend
Victor Rabanales vs Greg Richardson
Reggie Johnson vs Steve Collins.

Now as for a bit more obscure action that I can almost guarantee won't disappoint:
2000-02-19 Wayne Alexander - Paul Samuels
2001-01-02 Neil Simpson - Hastings Rasani I
2001-03-30 Kongthawat Sor Kitti - Muhammad Alfaridzi
2003-07-25 David Walker - Spencer Fearon
2003-08-01 Manuel Gomez - Jeffrey Hill

 

Actually, I suppose another way of going about things would be to recommend fighters rather than fights, because then you get that great feeling of discovery. So here's some obscure guys who's fights are usually always good value, and **** it, I'll throw my favourite fight in there too:

Victor Rabanales: Wayne McCullough
Young Kyun Park: Tae Shik Jun
Akira Yaegashi: Pornsawan Porpramook
Naoto Takahashi: Mark Horikoshi
Rocky Kelly: Kostas Petrou
Chan Young Park: Takuya Muguruma

Will add more as they come to my mind.

 

Tapales vs Singyu is a great little fight. There's quite a few lower weight class fights over the last ten years that are excellent. Pretty much everyone outside of Inoue and Donaire get ignored.

Well, I actually got the wrong name for the Davilla fight. I meant Enrique Sanchez.

 

Richardson was in good fights with Moon and Tatsuyoshi too. Not that it was hard with those two, every fight was brilliant if it involved either of them.

 

Weirdly, I've only ever seen one fight from Perez and I can't for the life of me remember who it was against. Although interestingly, I think his style would be really problematic for Nonito Donaire.

 

That's the one. Masterful fighter at his peak, and clearly extremely ingenuitive.
