When we talk about favorite/bestfights we usually discuss title fights or least fights featuring top contenders. The thing is my favorite fight of all time was Monroe Brooks vs Bruce Curry in the late seventies. So what are some of your favorites that weren't "big" fights?

I guess you mean their re-match as Duarte was easily beaten in original... If so, I would not call this one "a fight no one has heard of?" It was a network TV fight between two of the very biggest names in bantamweight division.

yeah and same goes with Kaylor vs. Christie. Definitely a BIG fight in England when it happened.
