    I've seen that guys channel before and you are right. A lot of great Toney stuff on there.

    One of my favourite performances is Calzaghe/Lacy. I know everyone says Lacy is shit now, but hindsight is always a useful weapon for the critics to wield. At the time most of the US fans and writers were picking Lacy and Calzaghe destroyed him in a way nobody else would have been able to do. Round after round of superb boxing from Calzaghe who was toying with Lacy like a cat with its prey. Finally Calzaghe had found recognition over the Atlantic and his most meaningful win since Eubank several years earlier.

    Winky Wright - Felix Trinidad.

    Strange as it may seem, this is the fight that got me interested in boxing.

    I can't find a full video on Youtube, so look it up yourselves if you're interested.

    I remember watching this fight on PPV and although it wasnt action packed I was on my feet. I thought it was a brilliant display of boxing technique and ability the way winky dismantled tito, controlled him with the jab all night. Im one of those fans that doesnt need to see knockouts and big hits, if its two highly skilled fighters or just one highly skilled fighter showing their skills then its just awesome to watch. I will watch any floyd mayweather fight boring or not just to see his evasive skills and speed.

    Toney said that Barclay hit him the hardest. It just seems crazy for Toney to lay in front of him but he has great skills just to avoid the punches. Quality fighter.

    I loved every minute of B-Hop Pavlik. Everyone treated B-Hop like he was gonna get DESTROYED. The disrespect from Jack Loew to even suggest that they weren't just gonna beat B-Hop but they were gonna knock him out viciously was ridiculous. B-Hop came in that ring and put a pure ASS-WHOOPING on Pavlik and gave the kid a boxing lesson. I thought it was a gonna be a tough fight for Pavlik, I didn't know that B-Hop would demolish the guy.

    Damn I definitely didn't expect my Trinidad-Wright performance to be stolen. A recent one is Ward-Kessler, that was pretty bad-ass. Pernell Whitaker the second fight with Buddy McGirt is my pick though, maybe not Whitaker's best fight but a total domination of a very good, un-injured, Buddy McGirt. His domination the second time over Jose Luis Ramirez runs a close second to me.

    I would have to go with Roberto Duran Vs Davey Moore
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ac-Rk6sVltQ

    Everyone thought Duran waqs done and he proved the world wrong....

    Vicious beating to a young tough kid who was no push over...

    Davey was not that experienced and had a real suspect record...Duran may of had his last shining moment but it was great to see the Man himself perform in the way he did one last time

    Second I have to go with Hagler vs Mugabi

    Vicious fight against a vicious puncher that gave Hagler all he could handle...I think Mugabi was 26-0 with 26 ko's but Marvin showed why he was so damn good and came out on top...I think both men ended up in the hospital I could be wrong but I do know Mugabi was never the same and Hagler pissed blood for over a week afterward...

    Man, I loved every second of that fight. I'll readily admit that I thought Pavlik was going to retire Hopkins, but seeing Pavlik get knocked around the right for 36 minutes was just great. The only thing that could have made it better would have been watching Naseem Richardson pimp-slap Jack Loew after the fight.
