    Default Under Rated Fights.

    Fight with No big names - Not promoted well, but delivered the goods.


    I Dug out an old VHS tape that had Versus boxing: Adamak vs Cunningham.

    Just a great fight, good ebb n flow action. Toe to toe, Cunningham the champ dropped 3 times, then boxes his way back, slugs his way back, wins the 12th, but lost the fight.


    Tarver vs Johnson I II

    If it weren't for Roy Jones, both these guys would be somewhat obscure name to sports world in general.
    Tarver at best would be known as Mason Dixon, but who would've known Mason Dixon was the man that knocked out RJJ?
    What a shame we talk about Gatti-Ward as a great fight, because HBO promoted it as such.

    Johnson vs Tarver I II were great fights from beginning to end.

    Yohnny Perez vs Joseph Agbeko I ( didnt see the rematch, but the first one was high-octane) both guys wanted it. Casual fans will never know their names- even the ones who know Donaire- the man to knock out Dchin...yet D-chin also lost to Agbeko which set up this match.
    Totally under the radar fight that delivered in skill and excitement.

    Oba Carr v Livingston Bramble was a good exciting fight where the young undefeated fighter nearly lost the fight.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Bramble has had a few fights that were exciting, yet his name isn't talked about very often.

    Another guy who frequents the BHOF, really cool dude.

    Loved that one. Call it baptism of fire or Oba's welcome to the real ring, they went to war. Had Bramble winning. I spent at least 10 bucks calling that 900 # they did to pick Bramble in the "opponent poll"

    I always liked him. Another one of these guys that on any given night could have beaten anyone in the weight class.

    His fights with Mancini were epic.

    Yes the Mancini fights were excellent - southpaw or orthodox.
