    Kelley v Hamed...wasn't really enjoying it when it was Live though, not until Hamed got the KO.
    Mayweather v N'dou...N'dou was supposedly the favourite to knock Mayweather out, they seemed to believe he had a genuine chance of pulling it off anyway. That was until Mayweather put on a great offensive and defensive performance...round 5 being the stand-out round.
    Calzaghe v Lacey...complete domination of a supposedly dangerous opponent, who the majority picked to knock Calzaghe out.

    Leonard-Hagler
    Barrera-Hamed
    come to mind...

    Coralles Castillo was crazy too, as well as many others but the two above just seem to stand out for me :) Barrera putting prince in his place, priceless, and Leonard-Hagler I think was one of the first great boxing matches I've seen... Ali-Foreman has to be on everybody's list also...

    hmm I think to find something surprisingly exciting it has to be fights that you saw live not when watching a good fight back when you already knew the outcome.
