What's been your best memory of live televised boxing?

the marquez diaz fight was awesome as was cotto margitrito

this a tough 1 tho need to do some more thinking

 

going back to my younger days I'd say:

Eubank-Collins
Eubank-Benn
Benn-McClellan
Eubank-Watson II
McColl-Bruno
Hamed-Barrera

There are of course plenty of others I could name from recent history.

 

the first 6 rounds cotto made margarito look rubarb. i remember cotto's nose bleeding badly in maybe the forth round and onwards which probly made it alot harder to breathe propley. guess were never know about the gloves

 

Lewis vs Tyson was the first big fight I watched live. I remember expecting It to be an absolute classic, but ended up being thouroghly dissapointed. From then on, I have kept my expectations low.

 

Has to be watching Hopkins schooling Pavlik, it was wonderful to watch a brilliant old fighter dispose of a guy who many predicted would be the first to stop him. But the main reason that I was so happy was because I'd emptied my bank and put all of my EMA money on Hopkins as soon as I saw that he was a 4/1 underdog in my local bookies, I was £500 richer. :happy:happy

 

snap, it was that in my local coral's. i only had a score on it but was well chuffed:good. was a lil worried they was gona stop it in the last

 

Benn Mclellan for me, Awesome ight, greatest fight in a british ring for 30 years anyone??

 

Even though deep down I knew it was never going to happen, as the fight wore on I was getting increasingly anxious about the possibility of a 'Hail Mary' punch from Pavlik to somehow claw back the victory. Needless to say I was chuffed to bits at the final bell.

 

Benn-Eubank
Benn-McClellan
Lewis-Ruddock
Bruno-Tyson

 

Nothing could top Benn-McClellan for me :happy.

Edge of your seat, heart racing etc!

 

I'd say so though Benn-Eubank I would give it a good push.

Its sad that McClellan fight in sometime overlooked by some simply because of the tragic outcome.

However, the fight was immense.

I was 14 at the time of that fight and worshipped Benn!

 

I also loved the Cotto-Margarito fight. I was a big Margarito fan at the time and I thought Cotto was over-rated, yet I never gave Margarito much of a chance. So when Margarito was catching up to Cotto I was jumping up and down (the only fight where I've ever done that,) and I was so full of adrenaline afterwards that I had to go out for a run and didn't get to sleep until about 10 in the morning.
