My Top 5 Best Matches Of The Past !!!


1. Joe Louis Max Schmeling: The rematch between these two gentlemen is filled with racial tension and bigotry. Nazi Germany was on the rise and America needed a champion and Joe Louis stepped up to the plate.

2. Muhammad Ali George Foreman: Ali was a huge underdog in this match, but he proved all his doubters wrong when he implemented his famous rope-a-dope technique. One good thing about the loss for “Big” George Foreman is he makes a mean Grill.

3. Marvelous Marvin Hagler Thomas Hearns: Some people in the boxing world say this bout is the best three minutes in boxing history.

4. Felix Trinidad Oscar De La Hoya: The really funny thing about this historic star studded September 18, 1999 event is that I actually attended this event. Felix got the 12 round decision, but in my opinion I thought De La Hoya won, but what do I know?

5. Julio Cesar Chavez Pernell Whitaker: This was a super fight when it happened, and one I will never forget. Pernell came off as the winner in this fight, and that is one of the reasons I made him number one on my greatest boxers list previously posted.
