Well I don't think all will qualify as Best ever but A few not mentioned that stand out to me that had a :o effect:

Jorge Castro vs.John David Jackson-Jackson was putting on a pure clinic and then Castro caught him on the ropes...WOW
Kid Gavilan vs.BoBo Olson-Gavilan cleans out Welts.and moves up to war with Olson.
Marvin Hagler vs.Vito Antufermo-brutal
Omar Sheika vs.Scott Pemberton 1-freakishly savage fight
Julian Jackson vs.Thomas Tate -Great back & forth as Tate takes everything
Iran Barkley vs.Jesus Castenada-Someone forgot to tell Jesus he was an "opponent".Bloodbath
Vincent Pettway vs.James hardrock Green-forget strategy,just bombs away
Quincy Taylor vs.Otis Grant-pretty much all technical until 12th rnd.picture perfect one punch and OUT COLD.
Aaron Davis vs.Simon Brown-2 old warriors.......go to war
Bernard Hopkins vs.John David Jackson-B-Hop assaults and beats down future corner man
Tommy Hearns vs.James "the heat" Kinchen-Hearns gets dropped and is given early christmas gift Decision.

Good call on all of these ICB.
IMO, I think Zale vs. Graziano 1 is head and shoulders above the rest.
The fight that started it all.

Great calls on these... Especially on the 'Locomotora' vs. 'Action' 1 quite possibly my favortie FOTY to date. I've seen it a shit load of times and know it from begining to end.

Some of my favorites:

Monzon vs. Emile I
Nino vs. Rodriguez
Hank vs. Giardello I
Jackson vs. Graham
Collins vs. Pyatt
L. Holmes vs. Van Horn
Tiozzo vs. Baek
Liles vs. Littles II
Duddy vs. Campas
Sebastian vs. Asikainen II
Willie Gibbs vs. Eduoard

Benn-Logan and Benn-DeWitt weren't bad, either :)
