    For me, it comes down to Cotto/Judah or Hopkins/Wright. If I had to pick, though, it would be Cotto/Judah. HBO did a magnificent job producing that show.

    Taylor/Pavlik for the first fight. Wow, that part with the Black Keys song really did it for me.

    1. Pac Vs Morales III when Morales called Barrera a mutha ****a
    2. Pbf vs Gatti never seen a fighter disrespect another fight so bad calling him C+ and just calling him a bithch.
    3. Tarver vs Jones 3 was good, but to bad the fight didn't live to it.

    I have a hard time picking one, they're all fantastic. The first five minutes of Cotto/ Mosley had me amped. Watching Shane at the bowling alley was classic.

    I agree with the Hopkins-Tarver they really went into the training scenes.

    I'd have to say Floyd/Hatton. that sequence where Hatton was doin the workout with his trainer in that suit had a couple of my buddies worried for floyd............okay, so was i but once the fight started i immediately saw that that was just a bull**** workout routine.

    Most go up the week of the fight, then get taken down. Google HBO Countdown, and you can still find some posted to megaupload.
