    I had the privilage of seeing 2 of those fights live the Barrera Morales 1,and the Vargas Quartey fight. I can tell you are a Tito fan the fight with Vargas was an excellent fight but I dont think it was nearly as high as you have it Barrera Morales 3 was better and you have that way down at 24??? The Vargas vs Tito fight was 10 at best. Im gonna go with Barrera vs Morales 1 since I was there live,but even if I saw it on TV it would still be top 3 easy maybe still #1 with Castillo Corrales1 and Ward Gatti 1 right in the mix also Marquez vs Vasquez 2 and 3 right there too.

    One glaring omission that im sure many of you saw since it was on ESPN2 back in 2000 was Tony Ayala vs Yori Boy Campas that was a brutal war!! THat would have easily made my top 10 maybe even around 5.

    Good list but Froch-Pascal > Froch-Taylor IMO

    Dunne-Cordoba should be given consideration. Also check out Jamie Moore-Matthew Macklin and Alex Arthur-Michael Gomez

    I stopped reading here... Morales-Barrera I is MILES ahead of this fight, its not even close.

    Take out rd 9 & all you have is a good fight, every rd of EM-MAB I was great maybe except rd 6 which was the quietest & most tactical but still ok..... they needed a rest after rd 5... the rd of the year officially.
