I'm a little puzzled. Seventy plus views and no comments?

Not even a Bert Sugar sucks!

Heck, I'll settle for a Marbleheadmaui sucks!

Both lists pretty much contain all the ones that need to be there. Not trying to list the same fights again. But I will give you a couple that should be included

Hasim Rahman KO 5 Lennox Lewis- So Ocean 11 huh, Lewis?
Mike Tyson KO 1 Michael Spinks- No wonder Spinks was stalling
Donald Curry KO 2 Milton McCrory- I have yet to see a better left hook
Sonny Liston KO 1 Floyd Patterson- Patterson wasn't scared. He was fucking terrified
Max Schmeling TKO 12 Joe Louis- Right hands all damn night

Yep - a fantastic shot. A couple of years later he was on the end of one himself, courtesy of Mike McCallum!

GREAT list. The bolds are ones I considered and each has a good case. They'd all be on my list if I went 30 places.

What Azumah did to Fenech in that environment? Sensational!

great post- I cant believe how they have Dempsey vs Firpo on there. It looked like a amatuer boxing fight.

Yeah, if I was going to put a Dempsey fight on? It's be his annihilation of Jess Willard. A heavyweight revolution goes national.

That was legalised and brutal mugging.

Great thread interesting reading!



Sorry it's not boxing but i was watching some of the fights you guys mentioned and came across this. I had to post it as sent a chill down my spine, don't think this guy would have woke up from another shot or 2

How the HELL did I leave that off?

BTW, was the Curry left hook better than the one the Bodysnatcher landed on his a few years later?

[Master]

McClellan v Julian Jackson – welcome to the new p4p big hitter
Lewis v Ruddock – welcome to the new heavyweight big hitter
McCall v Lewis – close my eyes and hope to land to become champion.

Yeah, McClellan vs Jackson definitely belongs in my opinion. Good one with McCall knocking Lennox's head off. CC for you.

I consider it just a lil bit better. Cuz when Mike landed his he landed with full power. He lunged in and got full power behind it. Curry took like a quick swipe and the Ice man was done. It was so fast and short. The perfect punch
