Who Fought the Perfect Fight?

riddick bowe vs holyfield  holyfield vs riddick bowe 2nd fight  ali vs foreman larry holmes vs marvis fraizer joe fraizer vs bob foster roy jones vs james toney sugar ray leonard vs roberto duran 2nd fight frank bruno vs coetzee gerald mcclellan vs julian jackson 2nd fight joe louis vs max schmeling pernell whitaker vs chavez winky wright vs tito  david tua vs michael moorer david tua vs john ruiz

Whitaker Vs Mcgirt should be on there as well, he won all twelve rounds, but Pernell had alot of those performance's

I Do not think we say the same fights!

Fight one was far from one sided, one judge only had Whitaker winning by one point. And McGirt fought with a rotor cuff injury.

Fight two although more one sided, was still competitive with McGirt being credited with a second round knockdown

Personally the most punch perfect fight I saw was IMO Chavez's peak performance, his 11 round destruction of Edwin Rosario.

And if we are talking perfect punches, you can never beat Ray Robinson's 5th round KO of Gene Fullmer in their second fight.

Ray Robinson was meant to be at his best against Tommy Bell when he finally won the World 147lbs title.

I always admired Duran's destruction of Ray Lampkin, although he was not that impressed himself, with his:

"I had been in shape, they've be taking him to the morgue" (not the hospital).

So maybe Duran's victory over Carlos Palomino was his best...

[Tito BHB]

it could be argued i guess that if oscar had fought perfectly until he stated runnin away from trinidad in the latter rounds, though i think it was the first round, a middle round that they scored for him aswell, but they could easyily be argued to be oscars, it was great to watch a half a match worth's of a boxing lesson thhough, i love watching a great tactical bout.

CC - one of my favourite punches ever. Up there with Bob Foster on Dick Tiger and Jersey Joe on Ezzard Charles

Big H, What about Marciano's right hand bomb that squished Walcott's face, that it looked like Walcott's face was made of soft rubber?

Ruddock's Left Hook/uppercut on Dokes

[Mintymen]

PBF-Gatti
Pac-MAB
Pac-Chololo(wait a minute he was rocked in the 3rd, anyway most dominating decision of Pac's career)
MAB-Naseem
B-Hop-Tarver
Jones-Somebody(he did not get hit in a round)

Agreed. On a sidenote, have there ever been two great of pure boxers matched together like that in a title fight? Don't think so. Those 3 fights are something all boxing fans should see.

i think it was jones - pazienza

[OumaFan]

I don't know of one for sure but off the top of my head I'd include

PBF-Gatti, Corales
Hopkins-Trinidad
Calzaghe-Lacy
Roy Jones-Toney, Reggie Johnson
Buddy McGirt-Simon Brown
Meldrick Taylor-Buddy McGirt
Whittaker-Chavez
Barrera-Hamed
Winky-Trinidad

I think Lewis' beating of Tua was a more perfect performance then any of those. Did Lennox even get hit?

Good call, but I guess I give more credit to some of the other performances because a lot of those were against guys that I think of more highly than Tua. But it was a good performance.

[Lionheart Lacy]

i say calzaghe against Lacy was the perfect performance, no doubt! of most recent fights.

[bigragu]

I voted Hopkins/ Trinidad because coming in Tito was a huge favourite!!! But Hopkins/ Tarver should be on the list as well.

don't forget Mayweather/Gatti......doesn't get more perfect than that....

[Unknowndonor]

Have to put another vote on this thread=

Ali-Foreman. Ali played Big George. Wasn't dominate, but pulled it out.
