    :yep I'm not sure people really remember just how NASTY that fight really was. Round 2 was SICK when Pav had the Pantera backed into a corner and they both just declared WAR on each other. Bad ass fight right there.:good

    Man ... Pavlik showed his beard in that fight ...

    He also did a good job of pressing the issue ... That fight along w/ the two Taylor fights really made me believe that he's wasn't going to lose anytime soon especially at 160.

    The first Taylor fight showed me that he wasn't scared and that he could beat a champion ... The second fight showed that he could go the distance ...

    No one gave him a chance against Miranda and he showed the world that he had a chin and had massive power.

    1 Marciano Walcott I, great come from behide, Also Rocky was getting the bejesus beating out of him in rounds 1, 8, 11, and other rounds of couse. Walcott also had his bad rounds, rounds 3 and rounds ten were indeed Marciano. But behind on the cards, Rocky battles blindness, cuts, and comes back to win.

    2 Gans Nelson 1906, 40 something rounds of action, One of the best stimia fights as the amazing Gans out lasts Nelson in one of the greatness bouts ever, the heat must of been harsh.

    3 Ali Fraizer I, FOTC, amazing battle, it was Fraizer's night.

    4, Corbett Fitz, the first championship fight ever film. Again Fitz was behide, and he came back to ko Corbett with a amazing shot to the belly.

    5, Basilio vs Demarco II, this one is for the ages, Basilio gets hurt, and reeling early in the fight, only to come back and battle Demarco. Lots of back and forth action. Just amazing.

    There are others also. But this are the ones mostly in the DVD player when I watch it.

    1. Barrera vs. Morales I: Two of the top Mexican fighters of our era going tit for tat for 12 rounds, demonstrating the things Mexican fighters are known for: resilience, heart, and balls.

    2. Castillo vs. Corrales I: Watching the late Corrales give up his height and fight Castillo's fight only to get knocked down twice and then come back from the brink of defeat to stop his nemesis in this give and take battle keeps me in awe every time.

    3. Pacquiao - Marquez I: JMM comes back from being knocked down three times in the first round to outbox Pacquiao and give a good account for himself. A draw was probably the most honest verdict for that fight


    4. PBF vs. Gatti: As much as I love Gatti, he was simply outclassed by an elite fighter in this fight. PBF showed why he is the number 1 p4p fighter in the world in this fight.

    5. Pavlik vs. Taylor I: This fight gave the man who derailed the Miranda train the MW belt and kept his KO streak going. Also, Taylor showed up hungrier for this fight than he had in a long time.
