Re: Greatest round in boxing history?
That was a great one, but considering the hype for the fight, the greatness of the fighters and the fact that it was ROUND 1, I would nominate
Hagler-Hearns .
These guys stepped out of their corners fists absolutely flying... Caution thrown to the wind.
Others I would like to mention...
Holyfield-Bowe I Round 10 (courage by Holy to the max)
Gatti-Ward I Round 9 (jesus... that was epic)
But, that Coralles-JLC round is definitely up there.

Nice. I picked up Fight Night Champion last week & still haven't done a Hagler-Hearns matchup, think I might do that soon.

8.5/10
Graphics are amazing. online is very fun (16-4 online so far). And the story mode was surprisingly very good even though it's only five hours long.

Tyson/Douglas round 10 deserves some mention as far as heavyweights go. Though it does get dinged because of neither being an all time great.

That was a very historically significant round and maybe the most shocking round in boxing history, but I like to think that the 'best' rounds are the ones that go back-and-forth with both guys getting hurt and landing great shots only to have the opponent come back stronger.
Mike simply got lambasted in that round (and in that entire fight, for that matter).

Gatti vs Ward was the first fight that came to mind. Those guys had wars.

Gatti/Ward 1, Round 9 is the first one that sprang to mind. Also the first round of Hagler/Hearns.
