If I thought about it longer, I could have probably come up with some to replace a few on this list. Notice a few of these fights turned out to not live up to the expectations but I was definitely excited before each of them happened. :good

 

1. Calzaghe vs. Kessler
2. Hatton vs. Tszyu
3. Mundine vs. Green atsch (damn the hype)
4. Tszyu vs. Mitchell 2
5. Hatton vs. Mayweather (I think it will move up in the coming weeks)

 

Mosley/De la Hoya
Barrerra/Hamed
Taylor/Hopkins
Tyson/Holyfield
Lewis/Tyson

 

In terms of anticipation and result, that has to be my favourite fight ever.

 

Jones vs Ruiz
Wright vs Trinidad
Mosley vs Cotto
Mayweather vs Hatton

 

Pacquiao v barrera
Calzaghe v lacy
Haye v Mormeck
Benn v Eubank
Vargas v De La Hoya

 

In no particular order:
- EM vs. MAB III (Rubbermatch to settle the trilogy)
- PBF vs. DLH (Didn't live up to the hype but had me excited)
- Marquez vs. Vasquez
- Tyson vs. Lewis
- Corrales vs. Castillo II (Wasn't as good as the first)

I'm a sucker for the big events.

 

Tyson v Berbick.. I was following Mikes rise and in two years he was 20 years and a handful of months old and challenging for the richest prize in sport.. Trevor was respected and i still dont think Berbick had a clue what he was in for.. Mike showed that he was the boss, a boy in a mans body.. the start of a very poignant era in modern boxing..

Tyson v Spinks... just a curious one.. there was always at the back of my mind , what if like always Spinks finds a way to win.. he always seemed to ..

Tyson v Holyfield... I was completely sold on Mike dominating Evander and i was on a one track way of thinking .. BUT.. I was leaving the small trailer that Don and Carl KIng had set up behind the MGM on weigh in night, i ran into Lou Savarese and Henry Akinwande,, I just made polite chit chat .. " how u think its gonna go fellers ??" expecting the usual .MIkes gonna kill himm.. BUT !!! Both men grinned and said positively .. " Evander is going to show the world how easy Mike is to beat.." i said , you for real.. By this time Mike Grant was there too.. " They all seemed to be so supremely confident on Evander winnng , i bet 20 dollars .. still doubtful.. The rest is history..

Akinwande v Zolkin too and Moorer v Botha... plus a zillionth defence of Ricardo lopez's title and Christy Martin doing that female thang.. she thrashed some southern gal from Georgia named Bethany Payne in either 1 or 2.. great memories..
