I dug that Tyson Ruddock II, especially when Mike started fouling. Seemed pissed he couldnt end it. But he showed he had the stamina to fight 12 rounds.
AJ vs Wlad another fight where both had to dig down. I thought about Klitschko vs Lewis, probably ranks for me around 12-15th best.

Now that you've had a lovely conversation with yourself, feel free to bring us into the brave new world of current top HW fights.
I've probably seen the same ones you've seen. That's why I couldn't place them near the top.:rolleyes:
Eric: So SlimTrae what's your 10 favorite bands?:)
1. Parliament (1970s)
2. Cameo (1980s)
3. Ohio Players (1970s)
4. The Time (1980s-1990s)
5. Lakeside (1980s)
6. Testament (1990s)
7. AC/DC (1980s)
8. Earth Wind & Fire (1970s/1980s)
9. The JBs (1970s)
10. The Fallen State (Y2k10)
Fallen State is kind of a tie w/Creed. Depends on what mood I'm in I guess...
FleetWood Mac? Great taste in Music Mum & Dad!!!
I hope you live long. Long enough to realize, everyone's youth- is where their greatest (everything) comes from.
You'd be looked upon laughingly if you try to claim the 20 somethings have the best boxing, bands when you've grown past the age of 40. Vibrations change per era- rock will always exist, rap, but each generation feels it differently, agree? :)
Notice how the lower the number the newer the era. By age of 40, you will notice things are rehashed- a newer version of something you've already seen.
But I know you know that!:rolleyes:

Now how ya gonna say, the Beatle didn't lay this one out!?! They were out of style by even my birth, but doesn't mean their music is for the 1960s only!:biglaugh:
Kudos to Eric's parents They know great Rock bands!!:band::

Re: Your Top 10 HW Fights!
From the modern era, I'd give a nod to Joshua-Klitschko. After decades of being presented with "eye-glazing", "fan-chloroforming" heavyweight title fights.... we were finally rewarded with an exciting fight for the ages.
Might not be top 10, but for me pretty close at least.

AJ-Wlad was a great fight. Chisora always deliver as well- his battles with Whyte were 2- B level fighters that were a perfect mesh for each other.
I'd also say Fury vs Wallin was an unexpected surprise. That 12thround, Wallin had Fury huggin, clinching & mauling' Otto might've given the performance of his life in that losing effort.

Re: Your Top 10 HW Fights!
For the record: as competitive as AJ vs Wlad or Chisor vs Whyte or Ruiz Jr KO Aj, none of them would make my top 30, 40 HW fights. AJ-Wlad I could see inside of 50 greatest HW fights.
-
Re: Your Top 10 HW Fights!
Lewis vs Klitschko definately top 20.

;D Yeh just about. Both these guys could really bang. Still not sure Stewart didn't deserve the decision v Foreman after turning his face into something out of a horror flick.

is your favourite saddo @
TitoFan ? i think youre his
Top 10 Saddo
1. Iaminuit ( boxing knowledge- TOP Flight)All eras, all divisions. Saddo's Father of Boxing knowledge IMO May Peace Be Upon our boxing bro.
2. Brockton NSBTB (he's way too unpredictable to predict, I dig that Fight the power one day, we are the world the next!)He maybe crazy-but he aint no fool.
3. Master (master of mods) Knows some boxing too!
4. Spicoli (music, boxing, politics)
5. Titofan (boxing, politics, worldviews)
6. X (fucked up humor, but often funny as hell)
7. Kirkland Laing (Worldview with stats, facts & boxing. Puts his foot so deep up the asses of his foes- U can see his shoestrings hangin out their nostrils
8. Beanz Bad boy of Britain. Takes no prisoners, just KIAs
9. YKDADAMAJA- Doesn't post often -but when he does, I view it all!
10. Denilson3.0 Didn't care for him @1st. But he backs up everything regardless of loathe/love. None have disputed his facts. Boxing IQ way up there.
Now that I've answered everyone of your questions- with no fat, no preservatives, no additives just str8 answers...
there's a young blood called erics44, seems ok, But I suspect either he is so-so into boxing or can't find 10 recent HW fights to show how bad his era is.:cool:
