George Foreman vs Ron Lyle isn't a closet classic mate, because it won the FOTY. And pretty much every boxing fan knows about it, but yes Carl Thompson vs Ezra Sellers was indeed a closet classic, so many knockdowns in it its hard to keep track.
Re: Closet Classic Fights.
Bert Cooper v Mike Moorer .
Tony Sibson n Don Lee.
Re: Closet Classic Fights.
I didn't say it was - I asked if you'd seen it
Believe me there are many fight fans who haven't seen it, and many too who are unaware of it (especially those aged mid 30s and below)
i only managed to see it for first time last year - showed it at a mates house to a few a couple of years ago before a late night vegas fight. None were aware of it and all were fight fans !

Good call on the 'Hoko' fight. His 2 fights with villisana were great too
Re: Closet Classic Fights.
Herol Graham v Rod Douglas is a classic demonstration of boxing beating brawn, and if anyone doubts that the bomber would not have beaten Benn/Eubanks/Watson just watch that contest.

Micky Ward vs Aturo Gatti I

I want to see Ray Mancini vs Livingstone Bramle 2, i've seen the 1st one and loved it. But haven't been able to get hold of the rematch for some reason.
