Which of your favourite fighter's less celebrated fights do you enjoy?

didnt know that, another sad fact before the information age which prevents alot of that now..... i think i am going to make a thread on o'gradys record...so dont be shocked when you see it pop up

 

Ricky Hatton was amazing against Ray Oliveira, possibly his best performance besides Tszyu.

Nigel Benn beating Doug Dewitt doesnt seem to get watched as much as his other fights, top performance coming from the deck to seriously **** up the yank

Lewis v Mercer, some ****wits on here claim it was a boring fight, it was anything but.

 

Oh man, before the trilogy he was looking poised to become a bigger p4p star than his big brother and one of the sport's tops.

Izzy himself was generating mega-hype, which is why the buzz surrounding their first meeting was unreal. (and of course, due to how things unfolded from there only kept growing as the saga unfolded)

Had they stayed a weight class apart and not ruined each other, both would have left a long trail of respectable bodies in their wake.

 

i will check it out, thanks for the heads up :good

 

heres some hls of the JMM.Jandaeng fight.

JMM's uppercut was nasty in this fight.

Rafa Marquez-Mabuza II which was on the same card as the fight above like IB previously mentioned.

That Watson fight was unreal wasnt it, brutal. Dewitt before Barkley yeah.
You ever seen the staredown from that fight ? Dewitt looked genuinely frightened.

 

Mayweather-Jesus Chavez

Chavez marches forward and swarms Mayweather, who is forced to ship a bit of punishment despite defending beautifully throughout the fight simply because Chavez threw so many punches. That said, Mayweather finds his groove in the middle rounds and proceeds to blast JC with uppercut after uppercut after uppercut. Since I think Chavez was quite underrated when he was at his best, this stands out to be as being one of FMJ's best performances.

 

Floyd vs N'dou as it was almost punch perfect with an incredible finish and at the time N'dou was no mug by any means.


Floyd vs Chavez chavez was on floyd like a rash with an incredible output. floyds boxing brain and stamina really came to fort here, breaking him down bit by bit, very impressive imo.


Good thread. bbb

 

:thumbsup i agree!

Everyone talks about how vicious Jackson's KO was against Graham, but i always felt his KO against Wayne Powell was even more devastating.

 

You've upped this one before as I recall, and well done keeping the flame burning. :nod

Chavez in his prime - and really, all the way up until the tragedy - was a terrific fighter who sadly receives hardly any mention these days (outside of your posts).
