Name Three Fights That You Won’t Ever Forget

[caldo2025]

I’m talking about your most memorable 3 bouts where you will never forget: Where you were when you saw it. Who you watched it with. The chills you got and still get rewatching it.


1. Leonard vs. Hagler

2. Ward vs. Gatti I

3. Holyfield vs. Qawi I (watch if u can)

[KiwiRider]

1, Rumble in the Jungle, mainly because I've watched it 3 times over the years, once when it happened - but not live, once when video (or it may have been Beta) hit the market, and the 3rd time when the Internet graced us with a copy.
2, AJ vs Wlad. It had been sooooo long since we had a decent HW fight. Don't forget how boring Fury vs Wlad was, and Wilder lining up bums from the railway yards.. A seesaw fight with thrills and spills.
3, This is a series of fights that I am going to bundle together as one.
Pac Vs Marquez. I've watched them all 3 times, and Marquez knocking Pac out- I fell off the couch at the time

[DrDuke]

It's impossible to name just three among all seen fights, but if to consider only seen live, I'll go with:

1. Fury-Wlad. Yes, it was eventless, but my interest in boxing started at the fall of the Lewis era, after what there came the Klitschko era, when we was watching the same stuff all over again and again for long, long years. I turned on the Fury-Klitschko fight without any belief in the upset and I was damn excited alone with the fact of a round after another going for Fury. After this fight I became a Fury fan and I'll never root against him.

2. Fury-Wilder I. Nobody believed in Fury before the bout, but I did and it was satisfying for me to give a round after another to The Gypsy King in the fight, where the majority had expected him to be KOed. His heroic resurrection after the KD in the 12th was something special.

3. Fury-Wilder II. This time many believed in Fury, but in his methodical win on points. I thought that way too and I was super-excited, when The Gypsy King provided a brutal beatdown for Wilder and stopped him.

[Boxtune]

1- Lennox lewis VS vitali Klitchko
2- Mike Tyson Vs Buster Douglas
3- David Tua Vs Ike Ibeabuchi (Crazy Granite Jaws, landed zillion shots on each other, proved No one could knock out
young David Tua )

I think you just started watch boxing in recent years ... But you have 8000 posts

[victor-romeo]

So many....

Ill go with

Hagler - Hearns

Tyson - Douglas

Tyson - Holyfield I

[Monzon83]

Tyson v Berbick - stayed up late to watch the young Mike for the first time and still remember the awe that this monster was only 20.

Eubank v Watson - at WHL. The Sickening shot Watson took at the end of the 11th still seems fresh in my mind. That's a punch i'll never forget.

Benn v Mclellan. Was there live at the LA and never seen an atmosphere like it. We all know what the fight was like but we had a pretty mental night afterwards which adds to the memories.

[squiggy]

Pac Vs Marquez. I've watched them all 3 times, and Marquez knocking Pac out- I fell off the couch at the time

Yeah, I damn well couldn't believe that.
I couldn't watch that fight in real time for some reason, but managed to watch it the next day without having learned what had happened.

[victor-romeo]

1- Lennox lewis VS vitali Klitchko
2- Mike Tyson Vs Buster Douglas
3- David Tua Vs Ike Ibeabuchi (Crazy Granite Jaws, landed zillion shots on each other, proved No one could knock out
young David Tua )

Yea those are great calls i forgot about lewis vs klitschko and almost put ibeauchi vs tua great fight, but i stuck with my three, also some one here mentioned marquez vs pacqiao I one of the greatest fights ever but I rareley think about , i think if any more about marquez vs diaz not as great a fight but the way marquez the older smaller man found areas to rest while the energitic larger foe hunted him in the beginning of the fight and the way the master controlled fight and got the KO the way excellence is done..

I think it is. If you're not a die-hard fan, this bout never seems to get mentioned by the media.

We keep hearing about the first Holyfield-Bowe bout, Hagler-Hearns, Leonard-Hearns, Gatti-Ward etc. but Foreman-Lyle often goes under the radar, unless you're a true boxing fanatic.

[margaret thatcher]

take any 3 fights on pbc, and there's my list

[Jeff_lacy_ko]

Casamayor v katsidis

Toney v jirov

Holyfield v tyson 1

[caldo2025]

Benn-McClellan.
Foreman-Lyle.
Hamed-Kelley.

Not happy about loving ur first choice. Didn’t Benn have a. crazy ring walk? My aunt went nuts when Benn got it taken to him. It was in middle of day here and it’s like yesterday. Great #1 dude.

[bobcatbox]

I’m a relatively young fella, been watching since about 2008. Three that will always stick in my head are:

1. Mosley vs Margarito - watching Mosley stun the boxing world was just amazing. He was on fire that night and stopped Margarito’s reign of terror.

2. Sergio Martinez vs Paul Williams II - still to this day the scariest knockout I’ve ever seen since being a fan.

3. Wilder vs Fury I - just all around a really great fight. Wilder’s two knockdowns made it so interesting. Fury picking himself off he canvas in the 12th was an inspiration to the entire world. Bigger than boxing.

[1okstcsb]

Irleis "Cubanito" Perez VS Jimmy Paul
Sugar Ray Leonard Vs Marvin Hagler
Calvin Grove Vs Jorge Paez
Also Tyson Vs Buster Douglas and Tyson VS Holyfield

would you rather eat a spoonful of your own poop 1 time, or have to watch fury-wlad every day for a week?

As far as Fights I've watched Live.

1. Gatti vs Ward 1 - I had already become a fan of Gatti even from a one sided beatdown of Terronn Millett there was just something about the guy I liked. The Millett fight was the first I had seen of him. When I saw this fight, I mean wow. It was just unforgettable. Epic. Hell you all know.

2. Leonard Dorin vs Raul Balbi 1 - This was the undercard of Micky Ward vs Jesse James Leija. January 5th, 2002. I know that off the top of my head without looking it up. Boxing had already captured my interest, a few months prior to this I had started watching and following the sport closely. This fight right here is when Boxing became my new Religion. Largely forgotten by fans today. It'll never be forgotten by me. This fight is why I'm still here talking about Boxing all the time almost 20 years later. This fight was the one that made a Boxing Junkie outta me.

3. Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo 1 - Aside from the epic action of this fight, I can't lie this one was bittersweet for me. For months I had told everyone that Castillo was gonna knock out Corrales in the 10th round. After a f*cking epic war, he dropped him twice in the 10th, and it looked for all the world like my prediction was coming true, and I was over the moon excited watching it unfold, and then Corrales turned the tables, and battered Castillo and the fight was waved off with Corrales being the winner. I was so overwhelmed with emotion I actually cried. The only time ever I cried at a Boxing match. I was shocked. Speechless for several minutes. In time I've come to just appreciate it as the great fight that it was, but I never forget that emotion I felt as I watched it unfold live.

I could name you several others that are seared into my memory, but these are the 3 that the thread asked for.

Fury-Wlad every day for a week. Make it a year though, and I'm gonna have to eat that sh*t. Hell make it 3 months and I'm gonna have to eat the sh*t

But for a week. I guess I could stand it.

[gilgamesh]

Casamayor v katsidis

Toney v jirov

Holyfield v tyson 1

Toney vs Jirov is another one where moments of it are etched into my memory. The 12th round especially. Thinking of the fight I can hear Emanuel Steward's voice clearly ringing in my head "Oh OH!!!! That's it! That's it! He's down!!!"

"He better pull a Julio Cesar and run across the ring!"

Unforgettable indeed.

[Jeff_lacy_ko]

Kingpin johnson vs devin vargas

Watched it at a bar and went home with 2 women. Only time that ever happened to me in my life.
