Your top 5 favourite classic fights?

[THE THIRD MAN]

Top 5 is alot tougher than it seems - as soon as I think of 5 a few more pop into my head.

Personal favourites in no particular order.

Lennox Lewis vs Frank Bruno - I was there in the crowd at Cardiff cheering on Lennox, the first fight I ever attended- the 1st World Heavyweight title fight between 2 Britons.

Lloyd Honeyghan vs Donald Curry - Upset and what a dominating performance by Honeyghan at Caesars Palace. The fight proved that nothing is certain when two men enter the ring.

George Foreman vs Ron Lyle - Not a fight of skill just a fight between two 'gunslingers' - Heavyweight boxing at it's most brutal

Thomas Hearns vs Roberto Duran - The right hand Hearns landed when Duran was on the ropes will stay in my memory forever - what a punch.

Nigel Benn vs Gerald McClellan - Watched this fight with the whole family as there was a party to celebrate my grandparents 50th Wedding anniversary.
A tragic, brutal fight that showed the heart needed to compete at the highest level and the sad consequences that sometimes happen in the sport we all love.

What are your Top 5 favourite fights?

Bruno and Lewis was nothing more than a jab fest with Lewis looking bad with his balance that was not a classic fight infact i find it hard even calling it a good fight.


Dwight Muhammad Qawi vs Evander Holyfield 1
Meldrick Taylor vs Julio Cesar Chavez
Bobby Chacon vs Boza Edwards 2
George Foreman vs Ron Lyle
Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo 1
