    I'll start with the fight between the two guys whose last name I forgot, in Argentina, that featured 7 knockdowns in two rounds! Insane!

    Your turn.,..

    You know that it's a good question when nobody's responding, lol. This one's tough.

    I could run down a whole list of real heavyweight blowouts that I love, or middleweight/welterweight slugfests, but if I had to pick... I'd probably say John Mugabi Vs James Green. But if you're also including fights between guys who didn't have titles at the time, then I'd say Sims Vs Barkley.

    Maybe Michael Watson vs Nigel Benn.

    I love Harold Johnson's clinic against Eddie Machen.

    Ach, there are so many.

    Some brilliant fights to check out involving Charley Scott. His fights with Gaspar Ortega, Jose Stable and the 4th fight between he and Ralph Dupas are something else. Although Dupas eventually won a title which may DQ that fight. Also I would add the second bout between Harold Brazier and John Meekins and the 12 rounder between Frank Fletcher and Clint Jackson
