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.
