Tyson in ring interview after last fight (McBride)

 

Cassius Clay KOing Sonny Liston when hardly anyone gave him a chance

 

Wilder beating fury was amazing, that fanbase needed a reality check and they got it. Of course they are still making excuses today.

 

Good Moment - Bobby Chacon knocking down Bazooka Limon with 15 seconds left in the 15 round of the eventual 1982 Ring Magazine Fight of the Year. It was a great fight between two warriors and that put a great cap on it.

Bad Moment - Mike Tyson biting Evander Holyfield's ear.

 

Tszyu stopping Judah is right up there for me.

 

Left a sour taste in my mouth. A guy won a fight based on rounds where he barely landed a punch while the guy who won almost every round with any action lost the fight.

 

Probably Holyfield knocking out Tyson in the first fight, then The second fight with the biting incident.

 

My man Sanders proving what he could do against Klitschko.

 

I was in a large bar loaded full of Samoans for the Tua - Moorer fight

When Tua knocked him out inside 1 minute the whole bar broke into loud chanting - "TUA TUA"

Goose bumps, baby

 

Pac-ODLH. I remember the genuine fear for PAC’s life.

This is why I think it’s important that people have context about the feel of fights, rather than just reading about Charles burley on Wikipedia.

Pac was a BW who moves up to FW, boxing journalists thought his power had waned at 130 and his power was way more devastating at 122/126. 130 was already too big for him. They tested the waters at 135 to see how he would do. He did great against a tailor-made fighter, but this was really still a 130lb fighter who boxing people thought was already the upper limits of his weight.

Then he becomes a replacement for Floyd to fight ODLH at 147. It’s really a 130lb fight vs a huge 147 fighter who just took Floyd to an SD less than a year before.

Then he annihilates him in the most shocking performance of his life, more so than Ledwaba or MAB. Through the fight I was thinking Pac was 1 left hook away from getting ktfo.

Of course the excuses came after, but they lack context. It’s all hindsight, they didn’t live the present.

 

Being ringside as Tua destroyed Cameron was a very memorable moment for me. So many people thought Tua was finished and Cameron would walk through him

 

KTFO6 hands down.

Honorable mentions:
MAB schooling Hamed.
Holyfield beating Tyson.
Chavez coming from behind to stop Taylor
Broner's post fight walk after Maidana embarrassed him.

 

Marquez landing the perfect punch on Pacquiao....me and my dad nearly went through the ceiling... brilliant end to their rivalry and just an amazing fight
