    By live I mean you were actually there.

    Off the top of my head I'd say Gatti\Ward 3.

    .....I can't beat those first two replies

    In terms of a fight experience, and atmosphere.....Hatton-Tszyu will be pretty hard for me to top.

    I've only been to shitty ass NW fight cards

    I got to see Mayweather knock out Sharmba Mitchell with a jab to the body.. so I guess that qualifies as the best I've seen

    I've only seen one fight live here in SF

    Floyd Mayweather vs. Jesus Chavez

    the undercard had a Unification between Pacquiao and Sanchez at 122

    Pretty awesome card and atmosphere.

    Pacquiao got a bullshit Draw after they stopped the fight and all the pinoys outside lost their mind. :lol:

    I was at those 3 as well. jones tarver 1? :lol: that may not crack the top 100 fights I've been too. seems like you've had plenty of opportunities to settle the score with me, gelatinous jokozuna. alas you wouldve received more damage than the nose bleed you got at those fights.

    Saw the first Eubank/Benn fight at the NEC in Birmingham, which was intense and got me turning up to a lot of Benn's fights. However, by far the best fight I ever watched live was Benn/Mcclellan, although the ending takes the edge off a little. Didn't really know about how bad that was though until later when I read about it.

    as far as emotions and vibe in the ring it had to be Trinidad vs. Mayorga at MSG. That was crazy.

    I was also at the Cotto-Torres fight. Good action fight. Let me add Pavlik vs. Taylor I

    I've only been to a handful but definitely Brewster/Sergie was the best fight I watched live.

    Big Truck vs. Jones was pretty good too.

    Cotto vs. Margarito
    Soto-Karass vs. Estrada

    I've seen a bunch of really good club fights here in Calgary that I won't bother naming.

    A guy and a girl on a bus ride home from high school. No kidding I was there. This girl could fight too, I knew she had beat up a few girls before but here she was going head up with a guy from my hood who was also a very good fighter and she was more than holding her own. In fact I felt there was no visible winner as they were just right in each others range throwing non stop combo's and after they were seperated I could see the look on the dudes face was not only surprise but that he didn't want anymore. Can you believe this chick was also very pretty and fine as shit? To this day I don't even know how the fight started, I was sitting right by them looking out the window, next thing I know they start throwing bolos.

    By the way, if this thread was meant to be the best boxing match you've ever seen live, then it should have been titled as such or at least explained in the opening post. As it stands I've never attended a live boxing match anyway so there.
