Now THAT was Boxing! No ropa dopa, not much dancing just two guys in the pocket trading punches.

Thanks for that! So hard to find good boxing to watch these days, I’ve always preferred it over UFC.

I still say Gatti Ward 1 & 2 are the best heart/slugger/knockdown fights of all time!

I was fortunate to have grown up in the 60's and 70's in the era of the Heavy Weight Battleships that just slugged it out. Frasier, Holmes, Lewis, Ali, and even Sugar Ray.

Big Guns fired over and over.

they just stood there and battled.

Nice to know I'm not the only boxing fan here.

stealthn, I agree...Ward/Gatti fights are classics. They both agreed, it was like fighting their twin...

Ward highlights:
