    i just was watching a old fight and they brought up a interesting point that there is a southpaw vs orthodox complex that can sometimes makes fights boring.

    but i remember matthew saad muhammad fighting marvin johnson and it was one of the best fights ever.

    what was the best southpaw vs orthodox fight that you have seen?

    Hagler - Hearns was reasonable.

    .............I've never seen the first Saad-Johnson fight, which I've heard is even better than the second, which I have. Those come immediately to mind.

    The second Ramirez-Rosario bout was electric. Terrific, see-saw action.

    I've also heard good things about the Saldivar-Winstone Fights (I think they fought more than once).

    Chacon-Boza is another good one.

    very reasonable and quite a good answer :good

    i also thought pacquio-morales 1 was a very entertaining fight.

    was jorge castro vs john david jackson a great fight?
