I remember one where Rocky Marciano hit a guy, believe it was Jersey Joe Walcott, that til now was the worst I'd ever seen. I've had my cage rattled in my younger days but never like that. POWDERMAN.  :o :o

I like a good hockey fight but I have never seen the appeal of boxing or that MMA fighting.

I like hockey . where else can you see two sports at one time .  Everytime I go to a hockey game a boxing match always breaks out.

Hockey is the only sport I watch religiously.

I'd rather see Hockey, Boxing seems not real to me.

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

One of my favorite matches was watching Lennox Lewis beat tyson like a dog for 8 rds before he took him out. Tyson had really run his mouth before the fight and totally ticked the champ off, even making taunts about Lewis children. Geo Foreman was one of the announcers and mentioned several Xs how Lennox was purposely punishing tyson instead of taking him out. He said, I have never seen a hvywt champ intentionally punish a man like this in my life. After the fight in the ring tyson stroked Lennox face and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Loved that fight. POWDERMAN.  ;D ;D

That was a great fight for sure , Tyson was definately getting physically frustrated from Lewis's  effective jabs.

Though, for me it was Sugar Ray Leonard vs Hearns
Sugar Ray Leonard vs. Roberto Duran (Duran wins) then the rematch "No Mas" (Leonard wins) then on to the coup de gras , Leonard vs Hearns (Leonard wins) then the rematch Hearns vs Leonard (Judges give it to Leonard) but HEARNS SHOULD HAVE WON!!!!!!

I also loved watching Chavez vs anyone !!!

once in a while the sports channel will run some old classics
 Sugar Ray Robinson vs Jake LaMotta 
 Joe Louis vs Max Schmelling
Ali vs Foremen
Foreman vs Frazhier
Frazhier vs Ali

SCOOTRD. Those were great fights. Tommy Hearns was a great boxer who happened to be fighting at the wrong time. Hagler was another favorite of mine. I never liked hot dogs or show offs so I reckon thats why I never was much of a Leonard fan. I can't afford cable so I rarely get to see a boxing match anymore, I miss it. POWDERMAN.  ;D ;D

We grew up on boxing in our house. My grandfather went 18-0 in the military before he was discharged. My father was an inner city Boston Kid always getting into street scraps until they said what are we gonna do with this kid to straighten him out , so they enrolled him in local boxing clubs. when I was little , My father saw me following in some of his bad adolescent footprints so to keep me out of trouble enrolled me in YMCA boxing programs for after school kids.

If there was a fight on TV , all the boys and men in the family would be gathered round the TV set in living room watching , while aunts, grandmothers, and moms visited in the kitchen. Always had a smell of make your own sandwich stuff , coffee , cookies, cake,  or Pie and Ice cream (my grandmother enjoyed baking) in the house on fight nights.

Man I miss fight nights (and my grandmothers desserts)!!!

The 1990's fight that never happened  - 

Tyson - Foreman

Would loved for that to happen , Foreman even at his older age , would have wiped the floor with him.

After Tyson knocked out an aged Larry Holmes he was asked what the outcome might have been had Larry been 10 years younger?? Tyson said, he'd a killed me.
My uncle Jim was a big fella who used to be a sparring partner for Jack Dempsey when Dempsy was champ. He said that Jack loved to test his ability to take a punch of a big hvywt. One day Uncle Jim was in a foul mood. He said he always knew he could whip Dempsey so decided to take him out. He got an opening for a rt hand and put Jack on the canvass. Uncle Jim felt pretty smug, he said Jack got up and smiled, lets go one more Jim. He never saw it coming, he flattened uncle Jims nose all over his face. He said, I realized then that Jack had always toyed with me, but never fought me. POWDERMAN.  ;D ;D
