    Corrales-Castillo is my top 5, but ALi-Frazier I was and still is my no. 1. Both undefeated HW champions in their physical prime with different segments of American society backing one guy over the other. Fast paced and action packed also.

    I wouldn't agrue with any of the three to be honest, I just feel that the war, the knockdowns and then the comeback from Corrales was just like, "holy shit, can you believe, woah, what the hell man"..... ha

    It was a great scrap. A throwback. Every now and then we all would get a little disheartened with the boxing politics and the shite matches and mismatches masquarading as title fights and then a fight like Corrales and Castillo comes along and everythings alright again

    I remember reading about this fight the day it happened and I thought fuck I bet its over rated. Then finally 2 days later it was aired on australian fox sports and I made sure to watch it and I was like It is my favourite fight of all time because it happened in my generation and its just great. Two warriors showing no signs of giving up and just met in the centre of the ring and just traded shots all night. Fuckin great stuff!!!

    I just noticed Diego/Castillo 1 took place 5/7/05 and Diego died 5/7/07. He died exactly 2 years after first Castillo fight. 5/7 is date of biggest win and his trajedy.

    I'm pretty much with you on this one Kel. Castillo - Corrales & MAB - Morales are my two favourite fights! It's really difficult to say which one tops it though. You just can't beat the drama at the end in the Castillo-Corrales fight.

    I can't believe I forgot to mention audley Harrison vs danny Williams , that's in my top 3. Both fighters left it all in the ring that night, it was real emotional drama, I think I even shed a tear or two.
