    ok, here we go -

    1. Hatton v Tsyzu

    Same reasons as stated by yourself - bestlive boxing event EVER attended not only for the fight but the whole weekend, and watching the fight it would bring back all those great memories !

    2. Morales v Barrera I

    For me the best grudge match against two of the best Mexicans of the day, that were producing some of the best fights at that time in their career's. Could never get sick of watching that fight, and as mentioned a wrong decision at the end of the day, but it was overturned in the second match albeit both losers being on the wrong end of the decision.

    3. Hamed v Robinson

    Hamed of course is ya typical marmite fighter, but as I love marmite, and Hamed's style and unpredictability he had to figure in my top5. I chose this particular fight as I feel this was his most complete boxing masterclass he handed out to any opponent he faced in his career. The Kelley fight did come close in my reckoning, but for sheer boxing abilities this one takes it.

    4. Tyson v Berbick

    As a young'un this fight inspired me in the playground as the was a fat kid who kept picking on my mates at school. After watching this I felt if this small bloke can go out and knockout a man much bigger than he was, then why carnt I take on the big fat kid in the playground. Now dont get me wrong im no Mike Tyson but it gave me the spirit to confront him and ultimately take him down when it came to playtime. Would bring back sooo many memories of one's childhood. Also i guess this was probably the first fight when I saw the classic "chicken legs" dance, and geez what a dance he done across the ring, tops Judah's dance hands down.

    5. Hagler v Hearns

    As ive mentioned in another thread "best fight ever", this for me had everything, it was the 'golden era' of boxing and the time when I really started getting into the beautiful game. And to this day Hearns is most definately a hero of mine. His longevity was awesome, added to the weight divisions he went through makes him one of my favourite boxers of all time.

    I struggled to pick only 5 but narrowed it down to my first thoughts....

    Barrera Vs Morales 1

    Great battle when everone thought Barrera was done... he proved his greatness that night in defeat

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2BiK8DwBEw
    Cotto vs Pac Man

    Quite new but for me Manny proved without a doubt just how great he is and Cotto showed amazing heart.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJttAb7cq-0Ali Vs Forman
    The fight that made Ali the greatest IMO

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIxIPz4MIAENaz Vs Kelly
    massive naz fan and that was prob one his most exciting fights with Kelly knowing he has his number and he nearly did that night.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ1pnz1k2iY
    Lewis Vs Tua to help me get to sleep at night

    Dempsey Vs Willard
    the coming of Dempsy what a distructive litte guy he was still watch that one now and again

    1st off good to see you on here posting...

    Assuming NO compilation DVDs I'd take;

    Since I lived these fights ringside Castillo vs. Corrales 1, Rafa vs. Izzy 1 &2 I wont need to take them I can just close my eyes and relive them...

    1. Jorge Castro vs. John D. Jackson 1 - Up there as one of the greatest comebacks.
    2. Alexis Arguello vs. Aaron Pryor 1 - I know officially he lost BUT forever in my books he hands down won that fight.
    3. Salvador Sanchez vs. Wilfredo Gomez - I get excited just thinking about it. From the battle of the bands to what is IMO the greatest stare down EVER.
    4. Johnny Tapia vs. Paulie Ayala 1 - A brilliant match up with lots of excitement.
    5. Jorge Paez vs. Calvin Groove 1 - 3 knockdowns in the 15th round to pull off a great comeback and capture the title.

    1. Herol Graham v Rod Douglas - artistic beat down of undefeated clubber lank type southpaw that had beaten Benn in the amateurs.
    2. Neary v Holligan - intense Liverpool war
    3. Benn v McClennon - got me off my seat
    4. McCallum v Watson - jab and body shots were wicked
    5. JCC v Edwin Rosario - nothing could stop JCC
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
