What's the greatest performance in Boxing history?

Joe Louis vs Max Baer - to destroy someone so dangerous so quickly is remarkable. Louis was perfect in that fight.

 

Ali-Foreman, Leonard-Hearns

 

These two are a bit below some of your others i think. McDonald was an absolute nuffy and Eddie Mustafa Muhammad had been immensely impressive in totally outclassing Johnson prior to this.

 

Douglas Tyson needs to be added to the list as a 42-1 dog or whatever it was ...The man to disrupt the great Mike T timing with the jab and more importantly the lead right

 

I’m not much of a Dempsey apologist, but his performance against Willard was exceptional

 

Why would yu ever have to apologize for Dempsey?

 

Maybe my definition of apologist isn’t correct. I thought it was based on defending or arguing a point that is controversial, not apologising

 

Hey Morlocks someone Pm me that you called me a f****** racist. Wtf was all that about and which goddamn thread was that in? I wanna see it for myself.

 

Tbh it's just the performance. Not the level of Opposition, otherwise Jones and Foster wouldn't be on there

 

Alexis Arguello vs Andy Gannigan
Yuri Arbachakov vs Muangchai Kittikasem 1
Orlando Canizales vs Billy Hardy 2
Sumbu Kalambay vs Mike McCallum

 

Hearns - Cuevas, good call, watched that one the other day again. Completely destroyed Cuevas like he was nothing. Has to be up there

 

I'd like to see it too since I don't even know who you are. Show me. Truly faburgasted?

 

That's a great choice. Can't think of many better.

A fighter entering the world stage for the first time at championship level against a truly excellent titleholder and leaving everyone who saw it in no doubt that they had just witnessed greatness.

 

Good call. That and the win over Schmeling were brilliant wins.

 

Whitaker against Hagan was very very special, Pea barely put a foot wrong that night
