Barrera v Morales I was the most amazing and insane fight ever, it was 4am and I was wide awake and could not take my eyes off the fight.

Reminded me the Benn v McClellan fight had me shouting until my voice was gone.

I'm a fan of long grueling fights between men of immense skill.

The 1982 matchup between Aaron Pryor and Alexis Arguello was as savage, skilled and fast paced as anyhtinging I have ever seen. Just for starters the two greats threw 237 punches in the first round.

For something a little bit more elemental, the 1982 battle between Schoolboy Bobby Chacon and Bazooka Limon, their fourth fight, was 15 rounds of utter brutality and resolve.

Completely agree.

Leonard V Duran 1 'The brawl in Montreal' It's what boxing is all about, the new wave versus the old wave, remember Duran had been fighting for 12 years before this fight. He was the undisputed king of the Lightweight division coming up against new Welter king Leonard who had beaten the great Wilfred Benitez. Duran was awesome this night, he intimidated Leonard, (look closely at the pre fight ref instrcutions, Leonard knew he was in the ring with a monster) The atmosphere of that fight will never leave me. Sadly, we never saw the best of the Hands Of Stone ever again.

Wladimir Klitschko vs Sultan Ibragimov. Non stop action for the full twelve rounds. I'm actually surprised both men even came out alive.

On a serious note there are quite a few out there but I think my favourite is still Hagler vs Hearns. Every now and again I change my mind, normally when there is a classic that comes along like Barrera vs Morales 1 and Gatti vs Ward 1. But I always end up going back to that fight. The only problem with it was it didn't last long enough but 2 seriously world class guys brawling like that is just something else. Then the cut and Hagler "supposedly" being told he had a round to finish Hearns and then doing so. AMAZING.

I'm surprised there has been no Hollywood movie on Hagler, he was a superstar who made it to the top despite being avoided and written off for a long time. That would make a great film for me, BUT it would have to have original footage of his fights like they do in the Greatest. No actor could ever act the scene in the Hagler Hearns war.

Douglas upsetting Tyson= proves anything is possible.
