    2 per month? Just curious. I wanted to see if we could do a bi weekly thread on popular classic fights and re visit them and discuss them with fresh eyes. Would anyone be interested?

    I have a tentative list:

    1. GGG-Canelo 2
    2. Ali-Norton 2
    3. Usyk-Breidis
    4. Holyfield-Bowe 2
    5. Duran-Hagler
    6. De La Hoya-Quartey
    7. Holmes-Witherspoon
    8. Marciano-Charles 1
    9. Toney-Jirov
    10. Arguello-Pryor 1
    11. Toney-McCullum 1
    12. Roy Jones Jr-Tarver 1
    13. Holyfield-Moorer 1

    I want to try and do twice a month ones, so 22 in total. This is how i want it to work:

    - we will set dates to discuss the fights (let's say middle of the month and then the last day of each month). If you are interested, you can go back and rewatch the fight a few days prior to the discussion and come back with your thoughts.

    I'd have to think and come back to you, way too many greats to mention off the top of the head.

    No list would be complete without Junior Jones' destruction of Marco Barrera.

    Do you have a full version of Marciano-Charles 1 and are you planning on scoring these or just rewatching them?

    my memory must be deceiving me. I thought it was available in full. Even if it isn't, its worth a revisit.

    I am planning on scoring each fight that is available in full. With the ones that are not available in full, just rewatching and commenting on them.
