foreman lyle, my alltime favourite. don't know why exactly ... maybe because
it went back and forth several times for each one ...

its not a fight, its a montage, and a very good one at that. not my type of music, but it works out well in the end.

Foreman/Lyle
I love Foreman/Lyle as well and it has been a part of my collection for many years. I probably watch Douglas/Tyson the most because I picked Buster in the upset, won money off of it and it solidified my status a boxing guru at my college

I also watch the Corrales vs. Freitas. This was a great fight and imo is underrated.
Also DLH vs Vargas, W Gomez vs. S Sanchez, Trinidad vs. Reid, Corrales vs Castillo 1 etc.
Re: which fight did you watch most often?
every Vazquez vs marquez all were great fights
Trinidad vs vargas i watched a few times
Pavlik vs taylor I i really liked
Corrales vs castillo was epic and watched more than a couple of times
Hagler vs hearns has to be one of the greatest fights of all time
i watched Pacquiao vs marquez II 4 different times (in less than 48 hrs) trying to figure out how the judges were able to gift wrap the decision for Pacquiao. i am still baffled.
my fav fight of all time only cause JCC was my hero. was Chavez vs taylor I i still cant belive he came thru with the KO in the fight. regardles of the contreversy i love to see the last round of that fight over and over and over

Re: which fight did you watch most often?
Man I'm all about contemporary boxing (1999-present)...
I always see people here posting about old school fighters, Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, etc and I have no idea what theyre talking about! Ye, obviously Ive seen pics of these guys and I know who they are. But Ive never actually seen their fights.
Im all about contemporary boxing. Since like 1999, Im up-to-date with everything. I watch all the fights! Some of my favourite fights, in no order:
- Steve Molitor TKO 9 Takalani Ndlovu (Was a sik fight man. First time I saw Molitor fight live on TV and he absolutely ripped it up)
- Oscar DLH TKO 11 Fernando Vargas (This fight was a classic... Just such a sik fight I remember the weigh in Vargas was JACKED and then the fight was sik. Oscar almost got put thru the ropes round 1. Round 10 Oscar landed a sik body to head combo. Round 11 Night night. Wat a sik fight man)
- Miguel Cotto TKO 11 Zab Judah (Just a sik fight. Great action... Cotto hurt early comes back and gets the KO. Crazy stuff man)
- BHOP TKO 12 Felix Trinidad (I used to be a big BHOP fan back in the day. Was great to see him KO Trinidad cuz at the time every1 was saying Felix was "invincible")
- Mike Tyson W DQ 1 Peter McNeeley (LOL this fight is so jokes man. Tyson was so sik back in the day and McNeeley fight was crazy lol. 2bad the fight ended in DQ... we never know wat woulda happened had McNeeley's trainer not stepped in lol)
- Corrie Sanders KO 2 Wlad Klitschko (i always remember this fight cuz I was only about 14 or so years old when I watched it. I stayed up with my grandfather till like 3 IN THE MORNING. I told my gramps "This guy Klitschko hes supposed to be the next HW champion. Gonna be the next Lennox Lewis" Next thing U know guy gets absolutely plastered around the ring totally annihilated. lol, thats boxing. Good to see that Wlad has rebounded since then tho! Wlads a great dude)
- Oscar DLH W 12 Felix Sturm (Ye. Come on we all know who REALLY won the fight!)
- Nate Campbell W 12 Juan Diaz (Was a pretty sik fight and Ive always been a Nate Campbell fan, so it was cool to see him finally win the big one. Also was great cuz I watched it with family + friends... Good times. Good fight)
- Andrew Golota W 12 Mike Mollo (lol this fight was jokes... Mollo completely gasses out at end of fight. Golota fought like a champ lol. Held it together mentally even tho his face was all busted up. Wat a joker)
- Lucian Bute TKO 11 Alejandro Berrio (Was a sik fight... Awesome fcuking TKO. Great to see Bute win the title)
- Miguel Cotto TKO 6 Kelson Pinto (This fight was sik man he dropped Pinto like 3 or 4 times... This is the fight which made me say "Miguel Cotto is sik". Guy just completely opened up shop)
- Edison Miranda KO 1 Willie Gibbs (Miranda is one of my fav fighters and this was his first appearance on HBO... Guy completely tore it up... One big right hand and Gibbs is all over the place. Ever since this fight Ive been an Edison fan. He has a rematch coming up with Abraham and of course I will support Pantera!!!)

Ummm... if I had to pick 1 fight probably Oscar TKO 11 Fernando Vargas. Of course that was a great fight!GAVILAN wrote:Which fight get you in to boxing? There have to be that one fight that made you a fan.
Also Miguel Cotto's early fights... with Pinto, Torres, Abdulaev, Ceballos, Bailey, Corley... I watched all those and they were all crazy fights.
Lastly, of course also Felix Sturm when i saw him beat DLH that was a good night.
