What a sweet, sweet science! How do I get to become a "boxing head" please put me on. Mayweather seems to have just incredible techniques and finesse in his craft. He is my favorite. Next would be Ali. Fill me in brehs.

my feeling is that you must have a history of violence. i dont mean that the wrong way but i mean that you must have had a history fighting somewhere in your life to really understand what fighters are fighting for. if you dont have that element you can just be a fan but the fights arent real to you. and you will just have the perspectives and opinions of a fan. jack dempsey said a man must fight if really feel what he meant by saying that then the sport will come natural to you because it will speak to you. you will just soak it up.

I feel something boil within me when I watch a good fight. I feel like a complete savage, a beast trying to awaken within me when I see Ali vs. Foreman.

As for this thread, and some of the best technically skilled boxers today, watch lots of fights of fights Guillermo Rigondeaux, Floyd Mayweather, and Andre Ward.


Those are the hands down, 3 most talented boxers today, and rule their weight divisions with an iron fist....dominance because of their skill level.

What are some good fights to watch. Not interested in highlight videos. Honestly being Mexican I grew going to family members houses and watch the fights but I never understood boxing. Now being older I appreciate so much of it. I started with this year. Right now my favorite current boxer is Amir Khan cause of his speed an movement. It did suck seeing him get knocked out.

Can anyone recommend some of the best back and forth matches in boxing history. Or must watch fights to watch.
