The Holyfield fight was one of his best performances.

His destruction of holyfield was as surprising as it was clinical; absolute masterclass; picked apart one of the toughest men to ever enter the ring.

Colin McMillan vs Maurizo Stecca.

In recent times Josh Warrington’s performance against Lee Selby was phenomenal, nobody really gave him a chance, and he outclassed Selby pretty much every round, driven on by the fans, he raised his game to a level most people didn’t believe he had in him.

ya people talked for years like war was nowhere near selbys level and was just waiting to get exposed by some 'special' boxer

re: Barkley/Toney, KO magazine did a 3 page preview of it and said Barkley would bust him up. Hindsight and all that.

I was torn between the master class of the shutout win by Carl Froch over Jeff Lacy (absolutely mesmerising) and Sugar Ray versus Randolph Turpin's first meeting. Must go for Carl though as I only heard Randy's fight on radio (them were the days!).

Sweet Pea v JCC. Absolute work of art / tragedy.

Ali v Frazier I, II, III

Ali v Foreman

Holmes v Cooney

The Planquiao

When did that happen ?

Douglas v Tyson. Of course, Tyson was not right going in mentally, but Douglas put on an astounding display as a long-range boxer-puncher and (the knockdown besides) was pretty much punch perfect.

Also Honeyghan v Curry and Calzaghe v Kessler.

Leonard vs LaLonde. The balls on leonard and boy was he a finisher.

Aaron Pryer vs. Alexis Arquello. Take your pick of fight. Pryer just kept on coming and coming and coming...
