What's the best fight you ever seen?



Personally my favourite was seeing Muhammad Ali beat Floyd Patterson (though I loved all his fights with Frazier also)

Nolan Ryan vs. Robin Ventura.
Ali was the greatest boxer full stop.....
we didnt have a telly during the 1970s as my mum chucked it out the window........
so for me it was the Eubank v Benn fights....
Floyd Patterson should have stayed at Lt. Heavyweight - would we have ever heard of Bob Foster if he had? Floyd's two 1st round KO losses to Liston should have told him something.

That said, my favorite for this week is Marvin Hagler vs. John "The Beast" Mugabi. Two great warriors going toe to toe at center ring for 10 rounds - just pounding the crap out of each other!

Watching Buster Douglas put an end to the Tyson myth was also extremely satisfying.

As a kid I loved watching Ken Norton beat Ali - just to be robbed of the decisions by Don King's hand- picked judges.
To Josh: Ryan vs. Ventura was a good one! I have it on tape!
I liked Muhammad Ali versus Sonny Liston, where Ali won the title.
Ali -Frazier 3
Ali-Foreman
Ali - Liston 1
Manny Pacquiao vs Morales..
