Most Underrated Fights Ever

[amat]

OK, so we all know about the greatest fights ever Gatti-Ward, Castillo-Corrales ect.

But what are some fights that you really enjoy that nobody ever really talks about as good/great fights? They don't have to be all action thrillers, but just some fights you really find enjoyable that some might not know about or know they were great.

I'll start out.

Lamon Brewster - Sergei Lyakhovich

Juan Diaz - Jose Cotto

Librado Andrade - Yusaf Mack

Jamie Moore - Matthew Macklin

Jean Marc Mormeck - Oneil Bell


There's more but that's a pretty good spectrum to start out I think.

[Violent Demise]

Alejandro Gonzalez-Kevin Kelly. Great fight that rarely gets mentioned.

[Spicoli]

"Must spread rep" or some thing.On and off stamina aside....Morrison had a left hook that could hurt ANY heavyweight in recent memory.....Kelly vs. Gonzalez was awesome as well.Who called it,his corner or Kelly ? Frankie Randall Vs. Chavez 1..........just a perfectly executed game plan!Could be a long list

[Small Amount of Peas]

George Foreman vs Ron Lyle.

No pretense at defense. Just two mighty oaks teeing off on one another. What an absolute delight if you're into heavies.



Floyd Mayweather vs Chico Corrales

To me this fight absolutely showcased Floyd's promise and potential. He had it all that night. That Floyd could have beat anybody within 15 pounds in any direction.

Kelly told his corner he really couldn't see any more. And his corner called it. His eyes were swelling pretty bad

Theres just too many to list for me.. I mean I'll can be here for a week and still come up with something... I'll go with off the top of my haed fights I think RARELY get mentioned.

Anyway here' some from me:
Dorsey-Kelly
Chi-Brodie
Paez-Groove I
Nelson-Gomez
Rojas-Numata
Ingle-Jones
Alexis-Escalera I & II
Pagez-Lopez
Foster-DePaula
Lee-LoCicero
Cley Bey-Ettiene
Duddy-Campas
Ornelas-McKart II
Fletcher-Braxton I, II & III
Trice-Pompey
Andreis-Harding
Kates-Galindez
Coggi-Eder
Briggs-Adamek I & II
Lewis-Marovic

When I think of this I think of like fights on ESPN2, Telefutura, etc.

Of course there's the king of all ESPN fights, Burton-Ward. But that might not be underrated. Actually it is underrated even by those that say it was a great fight. Letterlough-Gonzalez was fun.

There was a fight on I think Telefutura or some Spanish channel a few years ago between Antonio Escalante and the guy who KO'd Litzau. Jose Hernandez maybe Was a good fight.

[Markusdarkus]

Tyson v Ruddock II
Norton v Ali II
Lewis v Mercer
Ward v Neary
Collins v Eubank I


Just a few under-rated.

That's the first time I've seen someone mention that fight. Yes, Hernandez-Escalante was a great fight. Happened in January I remember that for some reason one time I was thinking of the best fights ever to happen in January and I thought of that one and Bell-Mormeck. Why I was thinking of that I don't know.

I also think of those but so few people get to watch them that I try not to include them but there are so many great fights on ESPN2.

Also, watching Toney-Jirov last night for the first few rounds it reminded me of a cruiserweight Burton-Ward. I realize that's probably flawed, but a raw aggression guy with a slick guy who liked to fight at closed quarters. I don't know, thought Burton was robbed but that's easily one of the best fights of all time. Has to win that ESPN contest for fight of the decade imo.

Darnell Wilson-Kelvin Davis was a good one too. Kelvin Davis was an awesome fighter, very fun to watch even when he wasn't winning it's to bad he fell off that bridge.

Edner Cherry - Jorge Santa Cruz was a very good scrap on the undercard of the terrible Rolando Reyes-Jose Luis Castillo fight.
