Was also easy to say it before it happened, so where does that leave us?

This was the fight that immediately sprung into my mind and for the same reasons. Duran to me was like Justin Bieber is to 13-year-old school girls - without the damp panties, I was dumbfounded when Tommy starched him, I couldn't compute it.

All the big ones I thought have been mentioned with the two biggest in my mind being Braddock over Baer and Carter over Griffith.

That being said Leon Spinks beating Ali was pretty big as well.
