Greatest moments in boxing

Ali v Fraiser 1
Ali v Foreman
Ray Leonard v Duran 2

Wasn't this the "no mas" fight??

Seriously bro?

Yes maybe shocking more than great.

Ali v Fraiser 1
Ali v Foreman
Ray Leonard v Duran 2

Wasn't this the "no mas" fight??

Seriously bro?

Yes maybe shocking more than great.

I thought Leonard-Duran 1 was fantastic, though. It had such a huge buildup.... and back in those days it was mostly closed-circuit TV (damn that was a long time ago). And the fight was great. Hotly contested, although I didn't like Duran's blowing Leonard off after the fight.

Foreman vs Moorer

[CutMeMick]

Off the top of my head and since I'm in a boxing talk mood:

Johnson becomes the 1st Black Heavyweight champ
Finito retires undefeated
La Escopetas title reign
Chico-Temible 1 (Have I ever mentioned I sat ringside for this? )
Buster destroys the invincible Tyson
Armstrongs title run
Louis-Max 1 & 2 (US vs. Nazi Germany)
JCC goes 89 fights without a loss
Oscar becomes the 1st to capture 6 titles in 6 divisions
Charlie Z turns pro

[THE THIRD MAN]

I have a top 20

Johnson V Jeffries
Dempsey v Willard
Louis v Schmeling 2
Henry Armstong (3 titles in a year from Feather to Welter with wins over Ambers and Ross)
Sugar Ray Robinson (career)
Rocky Marciano (undefeated reign)
Ali V Liston 1
Ali V Frazier 1
Ali V Foreman (Rumble In The Jungle)
Ali V Frazier (Thrilla In Manila)
Leonard V Duran 1 (the lighter weight guys make their mark as a major drawcard, we then get an enormous boxing golden age of the 80's)
Sanchez V Gomez
Pryor V Arguello 1
Hagler V Hearns
Hagler V Leonard
Tyson (1986-1989 and V Douglas)
DLH V Mosley 1 (like him or not DLH was a pay for view gold mine)
DLH V Floyd
DLH V Pacquiao

Floyd V Pacquiao? (Boxing needs it more than ever)

[DavilaJones]

The perfect punch, that sweet left hook by the one and only Robinson in his rematch vs Fullmer.

[Slim the BoxingManiac]

Max Schmeling / Joe Louis 1 and 2.

No 1 was Fight of the year, when Louis lost in the 15th by tko

No 2 billed as fight of the century, even if it did only last one round when Louis ko'd Max.


(Made Hitler have a good sook)

The most historically significant fight of all time. Louis vs. Schmeling II, to me, is the greatest fight of all time, just because of the background and the buildup.

The perfect punch, that sweet left hook by the one and only Robinson in his rematch vs Fullmer.

In my opinion, the second best punch ever thrown on camera. The first, of course, being the punch that knocked out Jersey Joe Walcott in the 13th round vs. Marciano.

I love Duran for that because it showed how intense a fighter he was and how he would not be all pals with Leonard, even after the fight when you are supposed to make up.

Also loved Durans stand off with Hagler, pure class
