Cult Classic Fights ??

If you don't understand what i mean by the title, i mean fights that hardly anyone has seen or talks about.

Ike Padilla vs Leland Hardy = Amazing fight i just watched this one thanks to Jeff.

Fidel Bassa vs Dave McCauley 1

Frank Fletcher vs. Ernie Singletary = Brutal fight.

Myung Woo Yuh vs Oh-Kon Son

Bruce Curry vs Monroe brooks

Ricky Lockridge Vs Harold Knight

Ezra Sellers vs Carl Thompson

Carl Thompson vs Uriah Grant

Armando Muniz vs Carlos Palomino 1

Hong Soo-Hwan vs. Hector Carrasquilla = Hong was down 4 times i believe but comeback and won amazing fight, its a short but sweet slugfest. I haven't seen this one in ages i must watch this one again sometime.

Carl Thompson vs Sebastiaan Rothmann = Finally got round to seeing this one amazing fight

Alex Arthur vs Michael Gomez

Nigel Benn vs Anthony Logan

Julio Cesar Gonzalez vs Julian Letterlough = The amount of knockdowns in this fight is unbelievable.

Tommy Morrison vs Razor Ruddock

Micky Ward vs. Reggie Green

Lee Roy Murphy vs Chisanda Mutti = Just like Rocky 2 ending unbelievable.

There the ones that come to mind i'll think of some more later.

1 that springs to mind is Luis Fuentas vs Mauricio Martinez

That was an undercard fight with little to no hype but not only is it K.O of the year but it was turn around of the year .

The Benn v Logan fight, the ref was just about to stop it in Logans favour ;D

Benn-Logan was mental.


And fuckin 'ell 20 years old :o

Benn was practically out on his feet when he pulled off that brutal knockout. It was an arm punch really, since Benn's legs were gone at that point. But the motherfucker hit SO hard that even still it KO'd Logan. Amazing fight.

I have to go with Kevin Kelly against Derrick Gainer, what a fight, Kelly's eye was so big it look like they would stop the fight and then Kelly had a miracle KO

Benn was very lucky that night he was on the verge of being stopped, he was hit with about 20+ punches in a row then Benn swung a left hook out of desperation if i remember right and it caught Logan right on the chin, great shot Logan also went distance with Eubank.

Gomez-Arthur is one off my favorite fights, great action start to finish! haven't
seen most of these though so CC ICB for the list of fights!

No prob mate CC back and yes Arthur vs Gomez what a slug fest that was, and also what a battering Arthur took from Gomez's left hooks ouch.

Did you ever seen the Kid Akeem Vs Robert Quiroga fight that CutMeMick posted awhile back? That is an awesome fight, one of the closest fights I've ever seen each round is highly contested. Unfortunately it ends in a bad way with Kid Akeem going into a coma later and eventually passing away. What a fight though.

Napoles V Muniz 1975 TD Controversial

Fenech V Zaragoza 1986 All out War!

Duran V Palomino 1978 Nobody talks about this fight much

Monzon V Valdez 1 and 2 As Above

Hagler V Antuofermo 1979 Draw

All of these fights were highlights in some way or another but rarely mentioned.

Yes i did i seen that twice now and i still think Quiroga got a gift and Akeem deserved to win.

Kid Gavilan vs. Gil Turner.

The Forum In Ca. Was one of the premier and Historical venues for boxing.A cultish following in and of It self.
The Daniel Zarogoza Vs. Paul Banke (Rip) Trilogy was one of the best series of fights I Have ever seen.


And Ice....Who's Jeff ? ;)

Manuel Gomez-Jeffrey Hill

Its hard to say its a cult classic since it was fight of the year but seems like you don't see people talking about Bobby Chacon-Rafael Limon as much as some of the other truly great fights. At least not any more.

Antonio Escalante-Jose Hernandez (guy who KO'd Litzau) was a good fight that I don't think a ton of people saw.

Hagler vs. Antuofermo was pretty good. Nothin spectacular though. Neither guy really ever had the other in trouble. Least thats how I saw it.

I'm more surprised at the result more than anything else considering no-one came close to beating Hagler for a long time. Was a Hagler a huge favorite in this fight? He demolished him in the rematch.

Lovemore Ndou v Ben Rabah
Paul Briggs v Tomasz Adamek I and II

I don't remember his first name but the last name is Ruba vs Terry Norris.

Well I'm sure he was the favorite. Dunno bout HUGE though. It was really a tough fight for Hagler that should have been a decision victory. Hagler tired late and Antefuermo came on strong, but not strong enuff for a draw.
Vito was a tough, musclebound motherfucker though.

How good was that fight? I've heard it was exciting but I just find it hard to believe that Rabah could be in a truly exciting fight after seeing him versus Urango.
