I'm only listing fights I've seen in full. Corrales-Castillo I Ali-Frazier III Saad (Franklin)-M. Johnson I Moore-Durelle I Not sure which I'd have at #5.
Arguello/Pryor1 Ali/frazier1 Morales/Barrera 1 Coralles/Castillo 1 VAzquez/Marquez 3 Honerable mentions Gatti/Ward 1 Holy/Bowe1 Leonard/Hearns 1 Hagler/Muagbi
Good luck with this, i've enjoyed your other work. My picks: LaMotta v Robinson VI. Please don't leave this out. Leonard v Duran I. Vasquez v Marquez III. Ali v Frazier III. Baer v Braddock
My top 5 changes alot but for now its Marquez-Vasquez III Barrera-Morales I DeMarco-Basilo II Corrales-Castillo I Robinson-Basillo I
Your top 3 are going to be in there. I would probably favour Ali vs Frazier 1 over Manilla. There are so many good fights in history I may stretch this to a top 10. I'll be able to get all the videos no problem.
Ambitious! One probably is better than three for quality, I can see it out-ranking Manilla for most people...but for pure heart there really isn't an awful lot like it in colour, if anything.
I'd have to say that Pryor Arguello was the most rediculous fight I have ever seen. BUt as far as the best it would have to be Vazquez Marques II (I haven't seen the thrid one yet).
I'm in the minority in thinking Hagler vs Hearns isn't a top 5 of all time fight. The first round was unbelievable, but it's so short that I doubt I could put it ahead of Barrera vs Morales I or Arguello vs Pryor.
Leonard-Hearns I would have been a better choice than Leonard-Duran I Foreman-Lyle, although not for a title, deserves a mention
Of those listed, my ranked favorites are: 1- Muhammad Ali vs Joe Frazier I 2- Rafael Marquez vs Israel Vasquez 3 3- Corrales vs Castillo I 4- Marco Antonio Barrera vs Erik Morales I 5- Marvin Hagler vs Thomas Hearns
Dude get ahold of that 3rd fight please it shits all over the 2nd fight IMO. I actually call it the best fight ive ever seen and its not like im new to boxing ive seen pretty much every great fight in the history of boxing.
