Yup, because you weren't expecting it at all:

Gatti vs ward

I already posted the vid, but it fit well with the Topic.

Mike Tyson VS Jose Ribalta

Toney vs Nunn, Jackson vs Graham, Jackson vs Norris, Hearns vs Duran, Hamed vs Kelley, Rahman vs Lewis 1, Tua vs Ruiz, Tarver vs Jones 2, Jones vs Hill, Gatti vs Rodriguez.....just a few

I didnt expect hatton to get blown away so quick!!!!
Corrles v castillo (how did they keep going?) benn v mcleran (epic but tradgic x)
All edwin valaros 27 fights 100% ko ratio (how did he keep knocking everyone out?!)
Hatton v mauser (hatton badly cut over both eyes and still finding a brutal punch to score the ko!!)

Have seen many an amazing fight after the event when I knew the result so they don't quite have the same impact - this applies to ones like Hagler v Hearns when I was too young (what must that have been like to be watching live !!) and Tyson v Douglas when Sky first came on scene and no one had a dish.

Anyway ones that spring to mind that I was watching live are....


Kid Akeem v Robert Quiroga

Gatti v Ruelas (might have been Rodriguez, I forget which one I watched live on tv)

Benn v Mcclellan (I thought benn was finished in 30 seconds)

Kennedy Mckinney v Junior Jones

Naz v Kelley (am I right in thinking was same bill as above ??)

Carl Thompson v Ezra Sellars

The fights with Vazquez and Marquez were truly jaw dropping. Same with Castillo and Corrales, I mean it's an awesome thing when fighter's styles mesh together so perfectly that it makes such genius fights. Some fights are great even if they have kind of an ugly clash of styles. With those fights in particular though, I mean the drama from the first round on was just spectacular. It was consistent for 10 rounds in the Castillo Corrales fight, it was consistent for 3 whole fights in Vazquez and Marquez. That's awesome to see and truly jaw dropping. Round 10 in Castillo Corrales is as jaw dropping as anything I've ever seen in any sporting event I've ever watched. A truly special moment, I will NEVER forget for the rest of my life.

Can't believe nobody has posted this.



But this fight left me open mouthed for a loooong time.

Not only did Tyson bite Holyfield's ear once, but he turns around and bites it again, and gets DQ'd! unfucking believable!

Tyson claimed that Holyfield was headbutting him, but the real reason was, Tyson knew he was going to get his ass kicked again. This was really a disappointing result, I had my beer, popcorn and was all set to see Tyson get clowned again, and then that shit happened.

Maidana vs Ortiz had my mouth dropped for most the fight. Couldn't believe all the knockdowns.

The 15th of Weaver-Tate

Chacon-Limon IV
