    I love Augustus but he wasn't always fun to watch. He has been inconsistent in his career and while he has some questionable losses, he has some ugly losses too in which he DIDN'T put on a good show. Even the most ardent Augustus fan will admit that he wasn't ever consistent and even as a fan that is a very fair assesment. Plus, there is a huge probability that he took a DIVE against Alan Vester and imo that should disqualify him from the thread on that basis alone. That's not a good show.

    Ricardo Mayorga.

    Never been in a boring fight in his life.

    Cept for when Cory Spinks ran for his life and Mayorga got gyped outta two knockdowns and shoulda won the fight.
    "You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

    I can't believe no one has mentioned the great Felix "Tito" Trinidad. From the moment he won the title from Maurice Blocker, Tito could be counted on to KO someone in devastating fashion after being in some trouble himself. I think most people are judging Tito too much from his fights including and post Hopkins. Before that, he was a pay per view stud and one of the greatest welterweights of all time.

    He had 1 thing in common with Michael Jackson , they both wore gloves for no apparent reason !

    completely agree, kat is going for the win in every round from bell to bell. I have actually said that during his fights.

    I think of fighters that I put on for 'background' while doing other things or just have to rewatch.Ones that grab your attention even though you have watched a particular fight a number of times.Every single fighter has the occasional exception.'Good show' to me is one that keeps you standing while watching

    Terry Norris...you just NEVER knew what to expect.But you knew it would involve power punches and swings in momentum.

    Edwin Rosario...same
    Evander Holyfield....but the Donald and Bean fights were painful
    Nigel Benn...
    Johnny Tapia...for fighting style and unbrideled personality while he did it.
    Wayne Mccullough...
    Ricardo Lopez...
    Azumah Nelson
    Shane Mosley
    Jung-koo-Chang
    Glen Johnson
    Saad Muhammad
    Bobby Chacon
    Charles Brewer....yes.Him.His willingness combined with that chin made of eggshells.Fun stuff!!
    Michael Carbajal
    Arturo Gatti
    Wilfredo Gomez
    Oscar Larios
    Meldrick Taylor
    Tony Lopez
    Marco A.Barrera
    Jorge Paez....THE Showman
    Jochiro Tatsuyoshi....stay retired danmit!!!
    Yaqui Lopez
    Erik Morales
    Kevin Pompey..until the end was near
    Fernando Montiel
    Antonio Margarito
