I've never really sat down and watched a fight. I came home from a haircut and the 1974 Ali v. Foreman "Rumble in the Jungle" is on ESPN Classic. It's kinda fun to watch! Ali could kick some ass! Foreman's landed a couple of good ones too.

Hell yeah, im a major boxing fan...
IMO, the best fight in the past 2 years was probably Lennox v Klitschko, where lennox was gettin his assed whooped, but in the end, they had to stop the fight due to Klitschko's cut eye, and Lennox won...

Roy Jones Jr vs Tarver was also a pretty surprising fight...Tarver KOed him in the 2nd round, adding the first lose to Jones history, and taking his title as well

I dont know about you, but a fight that ends on a technicality doesn't impress me. Especially if a guy is getting his ass whooped and he wins. Then retires.

Did Lennox say whether he was gunna fight Klitschko again, or is he jus gunna retire like a biotch?? You and I both know what the outcome will be if he gives Klitschko another shot...

Yeah Jones first loss was BS. This one he actually got knocked the **** out. I still can't believe he lost.


But yeah, I love boxing. Ali > *

Holyfield is gonna fight Vitaly next sometime this summer.

There are so many great fights you can't single one out.
There are two that stick out in my mind,.. De La Hoya vs. Vargas and Trinidad vs. DLH.
DLH was robbed against Trinidad,.. but that fight made me a fan of his.
The Vargas fight was good because no one expected DLH to come back and win.
