    I'll go with this, Hearns was absolutely electric in this fight.

    KId Gavilan v Chuck Davey, Gavilan even turned southpaw to show the leftie how it should be done.A public exposure and humiliation of the overhyped college boy.

    Hearns vs Duran/Cuevas. He looked so fast and powerful it was scary.

    Douglas vs Tyson: even though Douglas was down in round 8, he was beating the untameable beast from pillar to post from the opening bell

    Lewis vs Briggs: Again not entirely dominant since Briggs staggered Lewis at the end of the first, but other than that, it was target practice and one hell of a fight!

    Lewis vs Rahman II: After all the trashtalk and the wrestle in the studio leading up to this one, it was a one-sided fight with one of the best knockouts ever. I'd nominate the McCall rematch as well, if he didn't stop fighting after the 3rd. I think he never looked better than that night.

    On a personal faves level i really enjoyed Rosario - Bramble. Bramble was enjoying enormous praise at the time, and was considered by many better than Camacho and co as the best 135 in the world as well as having a fantastic chin.
