I second that. The first Barrera/Morales fight was an absolute stormer.
That fight will never be equalled
The closest to it though is Chico - Castillo 1 . That was a war with a great ending
Holyfield - Bowe 1 & 3 . Back and forth action
Barrera vs Mckinney - Great display of enthusiasm and pace
Nas - Kelly - Knockdown fest
Lewis vs Briggs - Big men and big punches being thrown
Cotto vs Torres - Class action all the way
Casamayor - Chico 1 - Knockdowns both sides
Thompson vs Rothman - Back from the brink of defeat
Re: the most exciting fight............EVER
There have been too many to say which fight is the most esciting ever but...Try the Gatti/Ward trilogy....Any other Gatti fight....Ward/Augustas....
Re: the most exciting fight............EVER
Another really good old fight Pryor vs Arguello. It was an amazing fight.
This fight was just insane. It went 14 rounds & ended by TKO but with a very controversial back story. Ring Magazine gave it the "Fight Of The Year" award and then it was dubbed as the "Fight Of The Decade" & that's a pretty big double whammy for a fight.
The controversy was over Pryor's trainer bringing in a black water bottle...a second bottle that Panama Lewis (a shady trainer who has since been banned) called "the bottle I mixed". Anyways, after drinking from the bottle, with lord only knows what was in it, Pryor came out swinging & how. He ended up winning by TKO.
It's a good one...controversy or not...by the controversy was pretty interesting. Never figured out was actually in the bottle.
Re: the most exciting fight............EVER
Ali Frazier 1 and 3
Barerra Morales,all 3 fights
Manny Pacquiao Erik Morales 1 and 3.
Rafael Bazooka Limon v Bobby Chacon(probably top 3 for me,amazing)
Archie Moore v Yvonne Durelle(can't remember which one it was,when one of them was knocked down 3 times but got back up to win)
Castillo v Corrales 1(probably the best one)
Pryor-Arguello1
Hagler Hearns
Hearns v Leonard was boxing at it's finest.
George Foreman v Lyle
Meldrick Taylor v Julio Cesar Chavez
Sal Sanchez v Wilfredo Gomez
Michael Carbajal v Humberto Gonzalez
Tony Zale v Graziano
Felix Trinidad-Ricardo Mayorga.
the most brutal fight I have ever seen is Jack Demspey v Jess Williard I think. 8 knockdowns in 1 round,teeth knocked out,broken bones,blood everywhere!1919,great fight.
It depends which kind of fights you are looking for, wars,technical masterpieces, amazing 1 man shows,incredible knockouts. Personally,I love all the mentioned type of fights. If you tell me which ones specifically,we can help even more. Especially as you though De La Hoya Mayorga and Judah PBF were good,I 'd say the above list would excite BIG TIME!"!

A few days ago Ted the Bull had a topic about the fight between Moore and Durelle, you should really try and find that one, very exciting fight.
