What are the 5 fights you've watched most? Restrict yourself to FIVE please.

Is this a joke? You put this in your top 5 of all fights?? For hype maybe but the fight was pretty lame if you ask me. I dont remeber one clean shot being landed? Not one standing count and neither fighter had a mark on them.

Corrales - Castillo
Hopkins - Trinidad
Hagler - Hearns
Holyfield - Bowe 1
Whitaker - Chavez

 

1.Pavlik vs. Miranda - I was out of boxing for about a year and a half and this one got me back into it like I never was before. I watched Pavlik's 1st fight and a few others before I stopped then I saw this on TV and I was right back into it.

2.Calzaghe vs. Lacy - Beautiful example of how to out box someone who's going to try to knock you out with every punch, and I love that Lacy was favored and got that beat.

3.Pavlik vs. Taylor - Just a great overall fight, and the fact that it was for the undisputed middleweight championship of the world helps.

4.Barrera vs. Hamed - I love to see that arrogant little homo get put in his place by a true legend and an amazing textbook boxer.

5.Gatti vs. Ward - I could not believe what these 2 guys put into this fight, the fact that I saw it live really made me like it alot more because I remember sitting there having no idea which one would crumble first and neither did.

And even though I've watched RJJ more then any fighter easily there's no perticular fight I watch over and over.

 

Barrera-Morales 1 - Do i really need to explain this one???
Pac-Morales 1 - A true warrior going all out against the unstoppable force at the time.
JMM-Jandaeng - Probably the best uppercut combinations ever displayed. They came from outside inside. Everywhere. What a beating that was.
JMM-Pac 2 - Big upset even if the fight went as expected. So much for an improved Pac beating an old JMM.
Cotto-Mosley - Im a big fan of Cotto yet i really doubted him in this fight and chose Mosley to win it. I love when im proved wrong like this!

 

JCC/Taylor - Great fight
Trinidad/Vargas - Great fight
Corrales/Freitas - Great comeback/fight
Corrales/Castillo - Greatest of all times
Cotto/Judah - Great fight

 

Damn, I forgot Gatti/Ward I!!!!! I always laugh at Emmanuel Stewart in round 9 when he says "Ward should go to the body" 5 seconds later he hurts Gatti with a body shot and Stewart screams "that's where he should go, to the body!!!!!!" Manny was out of his mind that night.

The top 5 Fights I've seen...

1) SRL-Duran II: Good competitive fight for the first six rounds, then Leonard starts to frustrate him with his showboating in the 7th. I've probably seen that seventh round alone like 20+ times.

2) SRL-Hagler: Another great close fight. Had to watch many times because I had friends who argued Hagler won the fight. Had to keep rewatching it, but still score it 115-113 Leonard.

3) Ali-Foreman: ALI BOUMAYE!!!!!

4) Hearns-Hagler: No superfight has ever exceeded its own expectations as much as this in my opinion. Damn, why did Hearns get baited into brawling with Hagler? Hearns was the man!

5) Mayweather-Corrales: Mayweather's standout performance in his apparently finished role as an "active fighter". I could have had Clay-Liston or Rumble in the Jungle here, but I think as far as actually views, I've probably seen this fight only like one more time than the other two. It will be a differnet story next time I catch ESPN classic.

 

tito-vargas - fight was so competitive.. too bad this fight took something out of vargas

tito - dlh 1 - one of my fave dlh fight, even though he lost a controversial decision

harada - jofre - hell of a fight!!!

pacquiao - barrera 1 - one sided beatdown of pac to one of my fave mexican fighter

jcc-rosario - thanks to sweet pea i'm loving this fight right now! i'm going to watch this over and over

 

Ali-liston 1 (The beginning)

Ali Frazier 3 (The end)

Leonard - Duran 1 (Toe to toe)

Hearns - Hagler (Explosion)

RJJ - Griffin 2 (For once, take it to the max)

 

Kelly Pavlik vs Jermain Taylor 1
Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo 1
Marvin Hagler vs Thomas Hearns
Miguel Cotto vs Shane Mosley

tszyu-judah
mosley-delahoya1
mundine-green
jones jr-pazienza
tyson-bruno1

not all my fav fights, but probably the ones i watched the most

 

1. Whitaker-Chavez
2. Whitaker-De la Hoya
3. Duran-Leonard I
4. Leonard-Hagler
5. Chavez-Taylor I

 

Calzaghe - Starie: Joe gets some American exposure on Showtime in a great win.

Ruiz - Holyfield 1: History made as Holy becomes a 4 time champ.

DLH - Mayweather: The fight that saved boxing. A passing of the torch sort of fight.

Hatton - Urango: Clear evidence of Hattons slick boxing skills.

Oquendo - Byrd: Hugely entertaining fight. Showed Chris could take the intiative and win too.

 

Good call on Pavlik and Miranda. I thought it was fight of the year for 2007.
