    To me, what come to mind are:

    -Cotto's reaction/face after he got up from the 2nd KO vs Margo

    -Hopkins staring down the media


    What am I forgetting?

    Two guys who didn't get enough respect heading into their fights whipping behind. That's what boxing is all about.

    Hopkins climbing the mountain for the 3rd or 4th time when people thought he was getting old and it was time to retire.

    Two things:

    1. Peter being the 'Tough-man' at the press conference and tearing the belt out of Vitaly's hands....

    Only to be ridiculed and schooled the worst we have ever seen a champion be schooled.

    2. Hopkins' Oscar award winning performance in the Calzaghe fight.

    3. Hopkins starring at the press after the fight, trying to create an 'Ali-moment'.

    ______________________________

    Why not Pavlik-Hopkins?

    Because Pavlik didn't mouth off or play tough like Peter did. It is only extra sweet to see a villain get beat if he mouthes off before the fight. Hollywood movies know that simple fact of human psychlogy and exploit it over and over.

    The best moment was the 36 minutes of non stop war Vasquez and Marquez gave us on March 1st.
