Top 10 Fights Competed at the Highest Level

Joe Frazier vs. Muhammad Ali I
is from the action a top fight,but both fighters have not realy mutch skills,not a good tequnical fight

 

One that hasnt been mentioned:

Juan Manuel Marquez-Marco Antonio Barrera.

The highest display of technical skill shown from both fighters in the last decade IMO.

 

Charles-Johnson is a good shout.

But Chang/Zapata>Gonzalez/Vargas all day :yep

 

I like all the ones mentioned by others... I would also include

Pac vs. JMM 1
Duran vs. Barkley (sure Duran was past it but both put on good performances)
Floyd vs. Castillo 1
Duran vs. Ken B.

 

Ayub Kalule vs Marijan Benes

Truly an unsung masterpiece of frenzied madness and subtle methodical technique.


Basilio vs DeMarco bouts deserve mention for effective savagery.

 

harold johnson-ezzard charles?

ezzard charles-jersey joe walcott II?

 

Yeah, yeah.

 

I`ll stick entirely to fighters that were the true elite of the sport in their day... so there will be no Chacon v Limon 4, Chacon v Boza-Edwards 2 or Castillo v Corrales 1... but those would make my list if we`re talking strictly action fights, anyway, here goes.....

Erik Morales W12 Marco Antonio Barrera (2000)

Muhammad Ali TKO14 Joe Frazier (1975)

Roberto Duran W15 Sugar Ray Leonard (1980)

Marvelous Marvin Hagler TKO3 Thomas Hearns (1985)

Joe Frazier W15 Muhammad Ali (1971)

Sugar Ray Robinson TKO13 Jake Lamotta (1951)

Julio Cesar Chavez TKO12 Meldrick Taylor (1990)

Aaron Pryor TKO14 Alexis Arguello (1982)

Erik Morales W12 Manny Pacquiao (2005)

Sugar Ray Leonard TKO14 Thomas Hearns (1981)

 

I'm just unclear how Hagler Hearns could be named by so many people when it really was a long enough fight nor fought with much skill or strategy to be considered at the level of some of the others.

 

I have that fight but ain't watched it yet.

And yeah, the K.O fight against the Korean was missing; will get it soon :good
