    By moment I mean things like...

    -Cotto's reaction/face after getting up after the 2nd KO

    -Hopkins staring down the media

    -Corrales on the verge of getting TKO'd before TKO'ing Castillo

    -Round 9 Gatti/Ward




    I've only been a big boxing fan since '07...What are your guys favorite boxing "moments"???

    Recently - Either Morales winning vs Pacquiao when I thought he was finished (I turned out to be right but it was still a good feeling until Raheem 6 months later) or Barrera all busted up at the hands of Pacquiao. Id have rathered him lying in a pool of his own blood but I`ll just have to settle for the vicious beatdown.

    Past - Ali KOing Foreman.

    Depends how he beats Joe. If RJJ puts a whoopin on calzaghes ass, and then clearly wins rematch vs bernard, he'll be top 5 atg w/ out a doubt IMO.

    I'd put the odds of this happening at around 10-1. Can only hope.

    Duran beating the crap outta Davey Moore in round 8 back in 1983, and seeing George Foreman park Michael Moorer like a Cadillac in round 10 later in 1994...:happy

    Can't stop watching it over and over again. Damn, the legends were following Vitali as he came in... how did they pull that off?

    I really liked what they were trying to do with this ring entrance. I thought it was a great concept. But at the end of the day Vitali isn't even in the same leauge as Holyfield, Lennox, Tyson, Frazier and Foreman. Vitali is a B fighter in a C- division. The god awful "Dad-Rock" didn't help either.

    danny williams dislocating his shoulder and fighting on and knocking his opponent out with the other hand - incredible
