  1. Self explanatory. What was the best fight of the last five years?

    My vote goes to Ruslan Provodnikov vs. Timothy Bradley Junior.

    Bradley came back from the dead vs Prov, that fight was insane. But I'd have to pick Marquez-Pacquiao 4. Very significant, tension filled, back and forth action. Both were highly determined to get the ko and what an epic ending it had! Great ending to the best rivalry in boxing in the last couple of years.

    There was a fight I saw last year against Figueroa and a Japanese fighter (I can't remember his name.) That might've been one of the greatest fights I've ever seen.

    JMM-PAC 4 was also a great one. Besides the knockout, the fight had this great ebb and flow to it where both fighters looked sensational at times in the fight. And just when it looked like Pacman was about to stop Marquez, JMM landed the picture perfect right hand. Awesome stuff.

    JMM-Pac 4 - a display of skill and very gripping. It defined a legacy lasting virtually a decade.

    Some fights might have been bloodier or longer in this time period, but none were as good as this fight. It was an amazing event!
