    For Me...There were several fights where a solid fighter was ready to "test themselves" and challenge an Elite-Level fighter and got their asses whooped. And both of these fights involved one of my favorite fighters...Marco Antonio Barrera.

    First, Barrera vs Kennedy Mckinney...THIS WAS A GREAT FIGHT. This was the fight that put me officially on the MAB Bandwagon and have been there every since.

    Also Watching Naseem Hamed's ring entrance pissed me the hell off. And I wanted him to get KTFO. And I was glad to see Barrera WHOOP HIS ASS!!!

    Barerra is definitely one of the best boxers in his era.

    Camacho was an unbelievable fighter. Too bad that he is a bit underrated due to the antics he pulled

  14. Terribly under-appreciated fight, 1991 Fight of the Year:

    "Kid" Akeem Anifowoshe vs. Robert "Pikin" Quiroga

    Of course, at the end of 5/5, right after the decision is announced, Kid Akeem collapsed in the ring from a subdural hematoma.. the injury was later responsible for his death after an unsanctioned match in Nigeria in 1994.
