    For me it has to be foreman vs the 5 people in one night. Foreman doing the bunny hop in the first fight, fighting after the fight is over, wrestling to the ground with a fighter, telling the ref to stop the third fight, cornermen fighting and all this is topped off with ali ringside! truly a surreal moment in boxing.

    But what do you think is the craziest thing to happen in boxing?

    Nothing will ever be as shocking as Mike Tyson in his prime, derailed by a 42/1 underdog.

    and who could forget "the fanman" in Holyfield/Bowe II? The fanman is dead by the way; He got killed doing something related to his fan parachute.

    It's a shame he still gets to have a life, Sam Kellerman doesn't have that luxury.
