    Bobby Chacon v Rafael `Bazooka` Limon 4 (1982)

    Bobby Chacon v Cornelius Boza-Edwards 2 (1983)

    2 absolute wars, a few KDs in each fight too, if you havent seen these fights, you are missing something special, get right on it.

    Ibragimov-Austin....highest ever rated FNF telecast on ESPN I believe.

    What no Whitaker-Hurtado?.....DelaHoya along with everyone else was on the edge of their seat over a possible gigantic upset only to have an unlikely, thrilling, classic finish

    Carmen Basilio versus ANYBODY

    I heard Brewster-versus the big Aussie who's name slipped my mind was a war

    Hatton-versus the gangly windmill Colombian guy(wtf is up with my memory today?!)

    Gatti-Ruelas and Gatti-Rodriguez

    Mariano-Walcott I
    Lewis-Mercer
    Toney-Jirov

    John-Juarez II because of the edge of your seat finish

    Mancini-Frias in all of it's brief violent glory

    why no mention of Holyfield-Foreman? Great classic where Big George never stops trying

    Hopkins-Mercado....forget which one though

    There are a few of Victor Galindez fights that are classics and I have trouble finding his fights(partly due to my method of acquiring them) He's a largely forgotten about exciting ATG lightheavyweight

    i was just thinking about this fight yesterday..this was a fight i thought would be a blowout with ibragimov winning easily...instead it turns into a gut check fight with each fighter scoring a kd...i think its the only time ibragimov ever hit the canvas as a pro..i thought ray edged it slightly but i had no problems with the draw

    Lemme add Brewster-Krasniqi in there while I'm at it. The pre Liakhovic Brewster we all came to love doing his Matthew Saad Muhammad-esque thing
