There have been a few, but for me nigel Benn against Mcllellan was an all time classic.

Intense from start to finish.

Brodie vs Chi was a cracker.

Arthur vs Gomez (granted a domestic fight).

Naz vs Kelly was good (tho a little overated imo).

eubank vs thompson 1 & 2. (thompson was rarely in a bad 1).

Benn vs Eubank/McClellen.

For me its gotta b Audley vs Williams, cant wait 4 the rematch!

i think the best fight i have seen in a british ring is wayne rigby v michael ayres - to and fro action all the way and a brilliant ending.
also williams v potter has to be up there along with benn v mcclellan.
the single best punch i've ever seen was eubank's uppercut against watson, which had such terrible consequences. even so - for him to throw such a perfect, powerful shot after being knocked down and being so tired was unbelievable.

Lewis v Klitschko
Thompson v Sellars
Naz v Kelley

all cracking fights but for me it's still Benn v McClellan

I agree with the choices above but would like to add

Danny Williams v Mark Potter
Benn v Barkley

Benn v McClellan by some distance.

If it hadn't had the ending it did, that would have been loved in the way GattivWard, MoralesvBarrera etc are.

Lennox vs Vitali is a good call.

Moore vs Macklin, Moore vs Jones 3 are up there.

yeah that moore vs macklin was a total war!!!

In Jin Chi v Brodie 1
Moore v Jones 3
Lewis v Klitschko
Woods v Hoye
Woods v Johnson 3

Some of Davie Walkers scraps were edge of the seat stuff too.

But for me the very clear winner as it is with a lot of people has to be - Benn v McClellan.

Benn v Eubank
Benn v Mclellan
Naz v Sanchez
Brodie v Swain
Brodie v Chi
Moore v Macklin
Hatton v Tszyu

Lennox v Ruddock always sticks with me, I nearly screamed the house down.

Good shout that was a cracker and if I remember correctly Sanchez was out for quite a bit at the end wasn't he?

moore vs macklin, did you know moore was actually cut before the fight

all the woods vs johnson where good werent they?

Gomez never in a bad 1, that Johansson scrap was a cracker.

Cant believe i 4got Hatton vs KT.

It was a fantastic victory but a sh*t fight to watch - the intrigue of whether ricky could do it or not was definitely there - but horrible horrible fight in my opinion!!!

He was taken out on a stretcher I think.....

Was only four rounds (off top of my head) but he knocked Hamed down twice, I think only one was counted, and Naz had him rocking several times before a peach of a three-punch combination....

Thrilling fight....much better than the Kelley one IMO, that was a circus.

How did you know that!! Was you there with Tony?? Anyway he's right, 4 stitches in my eyelid 10 days before the fight, Tony Quigley done it and i've gotta say he never told anyone. Top lad. Had them out 3 days before the fight.

If you have never seen it get hold of a copy of Pat Cowdell v Salvador Sanchez.

There you have a very classy, British warrior pushing a genuine Hall of Fame all time great to the limit.

All hail the Warley Warrior!

Honourable mention goes to Billy Hardy for his first challenge against Orlando Canizales. Never saw the fight - only saw their second fight when the heat (and Orlando's brilliance) got to Billy - but to take Orlando Canizales to a SD says it all.

How about the first Hodkinson v Villasona fight?

How about Cowdell-Sanchez? Cowedell pushed the great Sanchez all the way, putting up a very strong performance, even if he he was the loser at the final bell.

McLellan - BEnn summed up all that boxing is about, good and bad.
