Classic Fights not given enough credit

[jamesmcdonnell]

90% of Carl Thompson fights.

Crawford Ashley v Nicky Piper
Ensley Bingham v Gilbert Jackson

Thompson v Rothmann! Unbelievable stuff, if you put it in a film script, people would say it was hokey.

[chinny]

How tense was Haye - Mormeck? Terrific fight I think.

Hoko v Goyo Vargas

Orlando Canizales v Billy Hardy

Tony Lopez v Brian Mitchell (all of em)

[Lenny]

Bradley Price v Gavin Down

[DavidPayne]

Is Brad ever in a bad fight?

[PJ Pat Gallagher]

Henry Wharton/Rob Reid
Brodie/Swain
Ampofo/Armour I (II less so but still good)
Pat Mullings/Spencer Oliver
CAT/Dunstan (everyone talks about Rothmann & Sellers)
Charles Shepherd/PJ Gallagher
Chris Saunders/Kevin Lueshing II

Great fight mate. Think it won FOTY that year with the BBBoC.

It wasn't that competitive but I remember the atmosphere and pop when Clinton Woods won his World title aganst that American (Hoye?) was huge.

Bradley Price v Gavin Down

Alan Bosworth v Gavin Down was also a great little scrap. I seem to remember Bosworth being the underdog and stopping Down in the 5th. Was shown on BBC1’s Grandstand.

[Wake up call]

I've not watched it back, but I remember Alex Arthur v Stephen Foster Jnr being a cracker in late 2007.

[jamesmcdonnell]

How about David Walker v Spencer Fearon? Few more dramatic fights than that.

[FloydD]

Derrick Jefferson vs Mo Harris. Heavyweight thriller.

[si7dog7]

Henry Wharton v Louis Gent I
Bobby Vanzie v Steve Murray I

Are a couple of others that spring to mind.

Trav dickinson v matty clarkson. Maybe not a classic but utterly brutal, could hear dickinsons pain every body shot, how he kept going was unreal.
