Thought Provoking Sports Question of the Day

"What has been your favorite boxing match in history?"

My favorite would be the "Marvelous" Marvin Hagler knockout of Thomas "Hitman" Hearns. This might be the greatest fight ever and if not it certainly was the most thrilling three round fight in history.


RIP Marvelous

Quite the menu.

Ward/Gatti I and II
Herns/Hagler was epic.
James Toney/Vasally Jirov. Probably the most violent match I'v ever seen. Cruiserweights.

Best fight? Hopkins vs. Oscar Del-Avoid-Ya. Based only on the result. Loved it when Hopkins folded Oscar with one punch.

Didn't think of the Ward/Gotti fights...they were amazing!

I remember watching this fight...O'Grady was a bloody mess
Jim Watt scores a TKO in the 12th round over Sean O’Grady (1980)
