25 years on and still the greatest fight ever IMO.

Hagler v Hearns is the best but the closest for me to that has been the first Eric Morales v Barrera and Benn v MClennan.

These are my top 2 aswell. Barrera should have got the nod though. Benn - McClellan was great but not in my top 3!

Just feels right that i rewatch it right now before we get to GMT midnight

Hope that both tommy and marv actually realise what today means for those of us who loves this sport so dearly

An amazing fight that's in my top 5 of all time. I give Barrera Morales 1 the top spot though as I saw it live.

Maybe if I was 20 years older and watched it live it would be at the top of the tree for me too.

I never saw until I was actually 12 years old. I was waiting up for the Tyson-Holyfield match and my dad got out his old video collection and showed me this brawl between 2 ATG's. I was already pumped that night as there had been some great boxing on live and the climax (Tyson - Evander) was still to come. This just left me in awe though and since that day I have been waiting to see something more entertaining (in my eyes) not only in boxing but in any other thing in life. It was a great night for me, Evander was the icing on the cake.

It would take something involving Angelina Jolie and my bedroom to better it I think and I could have that fight on in the background and then when I had finished I'd be able to watch the final 7 mins of the fight.
