    Default Most enjoyable fight you have seen. Within last 5 years.

    Kirkland Laing was posting in the 'Marcos Maidana may never fight again' thread and reminded us how much he enjoyed seeing Broner lose. I felt the same way about that fight.
    It doesn't have to be about somebody losing. I mean it could be about you favorite fighter winning or seeing a great fight.

    Yeah Froch fights in general. None really disappointed for me. As far as all out action anyway.

    Really enjoyed Martinez vs Salido recently.

    Berto vs Ortiz. Was that less than 5 years ago? Please say yes!

    4-16-11 Had to check. Lol
    That was a great fight! A great effort by both guys, but especially for Ortiz, who can sometimes give you the impression that he would rather be doing something else.

    Looking at the lists it seems I've been an admire of the fights of Provodnikov, Rios, Kirkland, Mathysse & PBF.

    Always really enjoyed Sebastian Lujan.

    His constant pressure is a joy to watch and his fight with Melligan is still one of my favs

    It was a bit of an ordeal to watch, as I think most of us predicted pre fight. But Pacman/Lil Floyd is totally redeemable, because it reminded me of my youth, when a fight was so big, seemingly anyone who knew anything about sport had an opinion (no matter how naive) and wanted to watch the fight.

    Well.... there's "enjoyable" because of the quality of the fight.... and there's "enjoyable" because although the fight may have been horribly boring and one-sided, in involved someone you dislike getting embarrassed. This one was enjoyable to me because of the latter.
