I'd probably go with Calzaghe v Lacy.
Calzaghe beat the living shit out of a guy who was supposed to be incredibly dangerous. Even Lacy's detractors probably didn't see that beating coming.

Thus, putting into question the whole "masterful performance" premise.

Tyson v Berbick was masterful execution and obliteration of the old champ.
I know you're a Tito guy but do you honestly believe he won that fight with Oscar?Quote:

Was there ever a more one-sided 10-Round fight ever.
A brilliant display of 'Pitch-and-Catch'.

beating Muhammad, I looked over at him and said >

Shane Mosley gave a masterful boxing performance over Luis Collazo. I was surprised to see Collazo winning & fighting still at elite level today. That to me shows how gr8 Shane was against him.
Shane Mosley gave a masterful beat down to Margarito.
Gr8 list.Quote:
