Thread of Wars for the noughties

Alright I wanted to start a list of fights that were absolute wars throughout. Fights that someone that is even a casual fan of boxing would enjoy. Trying to put fights up that happened from 2001-2009. I leave the obvious ones out for others to post.

Some ones that come to mind:

Rogers Mtagwa vs. Tomas Villa - 11/7/08

Tomasz Adamek vs. Paul Briggs I and II - 4/17/04, 10/7/06

Mahyar Monshipour vs. Somsak Sithchatchawal - 3/18/06

Giovanni Segura vs. Cesar Canchila I - 7/26/08

I expect this to be a very long list.

I'll get in with the 2 most obvious and probably my 2 favourite fights ever

Mab v Morales I

Castillo v Corrales I

Gatti-ward 1 and 3

Great call Agbeko vs Perez, was non stop punching all the way. I thought it was a classic and it was unlucky not to win the FOTY.

I haven't seen the other fight you mentioned, i'll have to watch that sometime.

I really enjoyed Rafael Marquez vs Tim Austin, great comeback from Rafael Marquez. And a great win for him, Tim Austin was highly thought of at that time.
