Remind me of a world title fight that was so hard to predict
In my lifetime - Douglas v Tyson
I was miles out ;)
No but you were sure before the fight
I don't mean fights you got wrong, I mean fights you couldn't decide
The Pacquiao Marquez fights were pretty hard to call
Klit v Fury - I was thought that Fury had a really good chance but I have to admit that I didn't want to commit to the outcome.
The Frampton/ Quigg fight falls into that category for me.
Lewis and Tua one of many for me. Was still buying into Lewis having a "glass" jaw and Tua of all people would find it, then again Tua could be boxed and relied too much on power. Once he came to the ring resembling a portly troll doll I sided with Lewis to box his ears off ;D and box his ears he did.
It's two elite and undefeated guys, the kind of fight that doesn't happen nearly enough in boxing. Off the top of my head, Rigo vs Donaire, and Brook vs Porter were along the same lines in recent years.
Williams/Martinez II. I had NO prediction of the outcome. It could have gone either way to me.
I was actually kind of let down by the KO by Martinez. I was looking forward to an all-out war between those two. I even told my girl (who doesn't give a shit about boxing): "You need to check this out"
RJJ v Toney , its was a pickem fight before the fist bell.
Tito v Vargas I was stuck on as well as Tito v Oscar. they were all 50/50 for me.
