    Got inspired by @Russell. But instead of R1 KOs, it’s the entire fight. Monzon vs Benvenuti 1 is one of my favorites, the crowd was roaring for every punch Nino threw and that KO was uncanny. And so.
    What’s yours?

    Nelson-Fenech 2 - When that fight was stopped, you could hear literally 2-3 people celebrating out of an entire stadium full of fans that was otherwise deafeningly silent.

    I consider this one of the standard bearing examples of fights of taking the belt on hostile soil, especially given the aftermath
