Hunter v Pickering
Arthur v Gomez
Hatton v Tszyu
Moore v Macklin
Haye v Maccarinelli
Earl v Katsidis
Woods v Johnson III
Hatton v Magee
Dunne v Cordoba
Hunter v Callaghan

I'll remember those two Hunter fights for the rest of my life. For atmosphere and action I'm not sure I'll ever witness anything to top them.

One I can't believe hasn't been mentioned is Carl Thompson versus Ezra Sellers - I love that fight.

Since Oct 17th I've been conducting a poll on 'The Greatest Nights in British and Irish boxing 2001-2011'.

The top 20 picks will be written about by me and turned into a book. The foreword will be written by Glyn Leach, Editor of Boxing Monthly. So far I've hard 939 votes with 123 fights nominated. Voting ends on Monday 31st October at 5pm.

As well as pre-fight, fight and post-fight analysis there will be interviews with the fighters, promoters, fans/voters, matchmakers, pundits, commentators, referees...

There's no criteria except that the fights had to have taken place from 2001-2011 and on British and Irish soil. If I can reach 1000 votes I will be absolutely ecstatic.

This is the previous thread to see who has voted and on what.

http://boxrec.com/forum/posting.php?mod ... 9&t=144255

Please, please give me this one final push to get to a 1000. I will not forget it (and will probably want to interview some of youabout your choices).

Members of BoxRec and other forums as well as followers on Twitter and friends on Facebook have all voted. From the world of boxing I have had votes from the likes of Joe Gallagher, Steve Bunce, Mark Tibbs, Carl Frampton, Anthony Joshua, Darren Barker, Adam Booth, Dave Coldwell, Steve Lillis, Steve Bunce, Jane Couch, Glyn Leach, Tony Bellew, Jamie Moore, Alex Arthur, Jeff Thomas, Kevin Maree plus many more.

Please vote!
