Duran against Hagler in a full 15-rounder. Hagler was coming off crushing wins over Fully Obel, Caveman Lee, Tony Sibson and Wilford Scypion. He looked a monster but Duran had no fear. Harry Mullan wrote, "It was Hagler's fight but Duran's night."
Eubank jr vs BJ Saunders.....
Came on strong in the second half of that fight and had Billy running for the hills and from memory has him in a bit of trouble in the final round(s)....

Azumah Nelson v Salvador Sanchez
Don King promoted the Sanchez-Nelson war and he quickly snapped up Nelson. The undercard at Madison Square Garden was just as good as the main event, with five thrilling fights. King was renowned for his undercards.

Billy won the last round .
My memory is hazy.....I just recall Eubank coming on strong in the second half and had a good round near the end
Kash Farooq against Lee McGregor springs to mind - narrow loss but he received a lot of praise at the time as many (including myself) thought he did enough to win while playing his part in a cracking 50/50 fight. Also signed with Matchroom off the back of this bout, although in fairness Lee has performed brilliantly since while Kash hasn't been out as much as I'm sure he would have liked.

Junior fa recently vs Parker
Rivas vs Whyte (if he got back in there quick, but he wasted that little bit of momentum)
Plus Any time a no name gets robbed by a big name... but in all of them the critical thing is to not shut your mouth after that, so often people go quite and a year later the result is just remembered via boxrec...
what you need to do is every time the guy that robbed you wins you gotta do 5 interviews calling him a bitch and asking for a rematch, and reminding the world of the fact you should of won that fight.
Not sure who was loving Fa's performance, he was woeful.

Yea true actualy I take that back. I think my point is a fair few people though he won or nearly won, Parker is world class and da has never fought a pulse so in that sense he came out looking better than most though. Many on here were predicting an early Parker ko.
But your right it won’t help his career, no one will wanna fight him now.
