Forget the level of fighters involved, but obviously we all remember the big names and the big fights ahead of small hall shows that had less publicity.

What im looking for are the 12 greatest rounds of all time.

Here is a round 3 for you.... hagler v hearns...what a round. Any more rounds from you fellas?

Didn't Willie Pep win a round without throwing a punch? If so what round? Just to be a bit different.

Holyfield-Bowe Round 10 was a good un.

Good call

Kendal Holt Vs Ricardo Torres 2, Round 1
Cotto Vs Ricardo Torres Round 2
Foreman Vs Lyle round 4
Foreman Vs Lyle round 5
Gatti Vs Ward 1, round 9
Corrales VS Castillo 1, round 10
Despite the tragic ending Eubank Vs Watson 2, round 11
I especially enjoyed Calzaghe Vs Lacy Round 12

In terms of excitement Froch v Taylor round 12. You couldn't have made it up.

Round 1 Benn v Barkley

Gooood shout.

bruno v tyson round 1

Round 3 Marquez-Vazquez II (although you could probably pick any number of rounds from their first 3 fights)

I enjoyed Maidana v Ortiz Round 1 and Ortiz v Berto Round 6

This was in the Guardian yesterday:

How about if you had to sit down and watch fifteen rounds of boxing but could only watch rounds the way they were numbered?

Round 1 - Hagler Hearns
Round 2 - Norris Waters
Round 3 - Vasquez Marquez II
Round 4 - Earl Katsidis

etc

i thought that was the idea of the thread anyway

15 gives you more scope

Barrera-Morales1 Round 5

Ward-Augustus Round 9. Though you could cite pretty much all of it.
Thompson-Sellars Round 1

Loads of potential CAT rounds.

Round 9 and Round 10 seem to have the most choice.

Hagler vs Leonard Round 9 is a good one.

De La Hoya vs Quartey Round 12

Surely a fair few with the words Jamie Moore got to be worth a mention - some of his rounds vs Rhodes, Jones 3 and Macklin worthy of a mention.

Gibbs vs Daniel Eduard from a few years ago was a real up and downer - you could potentially pick a stack of rounds from that.

How has nobody mentioned Round 9 of Gatti - Ward?
