Foreman vs Frazier because they were both great fighters and I knew George would win but I didnt know he would knock him out as much as he did. Frazier was a great fighter and george made him look like like he couldn't even defend himself

Morales Paquiao I
Manny should have won, but my man, favorite boxer, just did everything right.
The only thing was he went lefty to show off and was hurt in the closing seconds.
Pacquiao was and is a dangerous storm. Inside and out of the ring.
Re: Greatest performance?
Whittaker vs Chavez was a masterful performance is first one to my mind, Sweet P had several amazing ones..
Meldrick Taylor vs Buddy McGirt
Hopkins vs Trinidad
Duran vs Barkley, not that it was anywhere close to a dominating performance but consider all things it was a GREAT win for Duran.
Re: Greatest performance?
Mosley vs De la hoya. Mosley was masterful with his jabs.
Re: Greatest performance?
Ali V Foreman...Ali was given no chance by the majority of Boxing scribes
PBF V DLH....PBF comes from 130lb to 154lb to beat a seasoned DLH who had been fighting at 147 and over for the past 10 years, it was a great effort.
Robinson V Maxim for Light Heavy title in 1952... Only the heat beats Sugar Ray!
Leonard V Hagler...after long lay off Leonard beats long reigning Middleweight champ, controversy or not this was a mighty effort.
Corrales V Castillo....Corrales is almost out on his feet after two big knockdowns and who would have blamed the ref if he had of stopped it, then he gets up and knocks out Castillo in the very same round!
Re: Greatest performance?
Wilfred Benitez over Antonio Cervantes at age 17 to take the Junior Welterweight title. Amazing skills shown by Benitez. Cervantes finishes strong but it wasn't enough.
Eusebio Pedroza vs Patrick Ford. This is my honorable mention which is against the rules so you can ignore it.
