Underrated Fights

Great fights, that dont get the attention, press, or love that they deserved

Joel Casamayor vs Juan Manuel Marquez - I lvoed this fucking fight, sadly not that many people saw it, I watched it live with some buddies and we were all amazed at what a great fight it ended up being

Casamayor vs Katsidias - another war involving Joel and another fun , fun fight. Great back and forth action.

Katsiadias vs Czar Amonst - gets lost in the shuffle cause it was on the Bhop vs Winky undercard (glad Marble didnt commit suicide that night) but man this was a war on the level of Gatti-Augustus, but never really gets mentioned when great recent fights are brought up

Sakio Bika vs Jaidon Condrington - wasnt that fight fun as hell? sure technique went out the window and they were just winging it but man it made for fun tv.

Cunningham vs Adamek - who woulda though some cruisers would challenge Holyfield and Qawi 1 and Jirov vs Toney, man that fight was great

what are some others?

Pac vs Morales I - one of my favorites but usually overlooked

Jirov vs Toney - cruiserweight war

good adds gomez

Larry Holmes vs. Ken Norton

Larry Holmes vs. Mike Weaver

Evander Holyfield vs. Bert Cooper

Evander Holyfield vs. Dwight Braxton

Bobby Chacon vs. Bazooka Limon (I don't know if they fought more than once. All I know is I saw this one and it was a barn burner to say the very least.)

Whitikerk vs. Hertado (spelling)

Ray Leonard vs. Tommy Hearns II ( A fight known more for the decision than the fight itself, which was exceptional.

Tommy Hearns vs. James Kichen

Clottey vs. Cotto

Any Matthew Saad Muhammad fight

Evander Holyfield vs. Michael Dokes

Bird, I agree on the Casa-JMM fight. Very underrated.

Cotto-Margarito was a great fight. But not so great with the controversy. I wish I knew what to believe.

Tyson-Douglas. Say what you will, but Buster put on a clinic.

Holyfield-Qawi I. Just a good fight.

O'Neill Bell v. Jean Marc Mormeck I & II

Arguello-Ganigan
Sweet Pea-Hurtado
Robinson-Turpin II
Finito-Bufalo II

Awww I was going to say Jirov vs Toney. That is one of the best fights I have ever seen.

see i dont think Jirov Toney is underrated though, we all know it kicked serious ass

good add on the McCormeck vs Bell fights those were fun

whatever happened to Oneil Bell?

According to ESPN's Wednesday Night Fights on August 8, 2007, Bell, who was originally scheduled to appear, wasn't been able to be reached. He was scheduled to fight Louis Azille on the fight card, but his promoter pulled him from the fight three weeks prior because he could not be located.

Got this from Wikipedia

Cotto vs Torres

ya i remember that Hardcore, he just kinda fell off the deep end and retired is what it seems like

good add Slick Torress vs Cotto was a great war

I thought Holyfield vs Foreman was a great fight.

Marco Antonio Barrera vs Kennedy McKinney.

Surprised Patterson-Chuvalo didn't get mentioned.It won fight of the year,if I'm not mistaken.
