S
Morales Vs Pacman 1
winky - tito... i was sad tito lost but when winky was impressive as he was and stuck to such a solid game plan it was hard to be mad...
tito- mayorga the first time mayorga felt such incredible power!!
hopkins-tarver.. not that the fight was amazing atall.. but the fact that hopkins won another title and became two wieght world champ was the main thing.. and that tarver got schooled and was proved a fraud!!
jermaine taylors last three fights!! - not that they were impressive and they were far too close aswell!!
but its taking these caliber fights and wanting to make big defences that imo will make a legacy for bad intentions and earn him due respect in future!!
no hatton fight in particular but in general his rise to fame and the big time is certainly a good thing and something to cause excitement for the next few years to come!!
there are loads more but im gona kick back and agree with the peeps that come out with great answers to this thread now!!
also imo i think 2007 will be an awesom year for boxing i have a strong feeling there will be some big legendary fights to go on next year and im very much looking forward to em
peace
Yeah Morales v Pacman was a great fight I liked the second fight better for some reason allthough was sad to see Morales get beat the way he did...
woods vs johnson wernt bad scrap
calzaghe vs lacy
castillo vs corrales
james toney vs jirov
ricky hatton vs kostya
mab vs rocky 1
Morales Vs Pacman 1
castillo vs corrales, what a war shame about the let down of 2 and the farce of 3

RMarquez vs. Austin
Cotto vs. Torres
Krasniqi vs. Brewster
JMM vs. PAC
Freitas vs. Barrios
Dorin vs. Spadafora

*Did not include 2006
JLC vs Corrales
ODLH or Tito vs Mayorga
MAB vs Morrales III

Raiymkulov vs Casamayor
Brewster's last fight
3 of the 4 fights on the Golden Boy undercard ;)
Hopkins/Tarver and Castillo/Corrales easily the best of late. Castillo/Corrales cuz those guys are wicked crazy give it all hell raisers. BHOP just because of how one sided and great he looked against a silly dumb opponent who was a legend killer or whatever.
the third will be more of the same.Quote:

Trinidad-Mayorga
DLH-Mayorga
Corrales-Castillo
Morales-Pacquiao
Arce-Hussein I
