Most memorable bit of the Holmes V McCall fight was Larry nearly pulling of the upset.
Oh right it was you that unsticked it. I always assumed it was poor old iamunit as he had a backhanded pop at me for trying to make the board look uptodate.Quote:

I think Master or myself unstickied it after that and I updated it. It's a great reference point and he always talked about having a 'history' board on here.Quote:

Hamed V Ingle
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRvOZhIk6To
One of the longest entrances I can remember.
Julio was an artist in his own brutal way.
Ingle came back in the middle to late stages of the fight and nearly caused an upset.
My favorite part of the Chavez vs Hernandez fight is the right hand to the solar plexus Chavez lands right before the end. Folds him up
11 April 1982
Spinks v Sutherland
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FH61RB8LmRw
11th april 2009 there was a half decent card in vagas
paul Williams v winky wright, areola v mccline, danny Garcia
I tho watched the british card topped by Craig Watson v John O'Donnell
O'Donnell was tipped to go on to bigger better things and Watson was well respected but had kind of found his level
in my opinion Watson clearly won but O'Donnell was given the decision, Watson went on to win a rematch which I don't remember happening

De La Hoya V Whitaker
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3EvxNYKMs8
Oscar just about won this fight it was close but shows you the balls of him to take on the best welterweights one after the other. Shame as a promoter he does not do the same with Canelo.
Jose Napoles was born.
What Lopez should have been, had he not gone up in smoke. Never realized Loughran called it a day right after? http://youtu.be/cx7UII3ShGc
Jose Luis Lopez was a very talented fighter who you would have thought would have been a star in boxing. He gave Ike Quartey hell.
I was just reading one of those "the best I fought " pieces with Yori Boy Campos. He rates Lopez above Trinidad and Oscar.
Hagler-Hearns: April 15, 1985
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2pIVQIjnxY
Holy war!!!!
Hearns could not have boxed and move at the end, when the ref made the doctor check Hagler's cut, Hagler was on him like a lion.

Robinson v Graziano

Chavez v Aguilar
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOMKGRpHJi4
I love JCC. :cool:
Chavez in the 130-135 neighborhood tends to be a pretty underrated force. Great placement on shots
JCC would have destroyed the tall southpaw Indongo that beat Burns over the weekend in similar fashion. Brutal body shots and right hands with relentless pressure.Quote:
