Greatest Rounds ever
I couldn't think of a way to name this thread to get the point across, so I'll just let the thread explain itself
Anyway, what I thought would be a cool idea for a thread. We've all discussed Greatest Rounds of all time, Greatest Fights of all time, that kinda thing, but have we ever done a breakdown of who specifically fought the greatest of each round?
Example
The Greatest Round 9 ever: Gatti vs Ward 1.
I'll leave other examples for you guys so we can kinda run with this thread, but I figure that'd be an interesting topic. The Greatest rounds ever up and down the line. We can go 1 thru 15.
Obviously there will be some debate to be had on certain rounds, but that's kinda the point right?

Round 1: Hagler vs Hearns
The fighters he's beaten aren't even household names in their own household.

Re: Greatest Rounds ever
No doubt.
Just for funsies, I will submit Round 4 of Kelley/Hamed - but I put both Corrales/Castillo and Hagler/Hearns well above that round.

Re: Greatest Rounds ever
Since we haven't had a Round 5 mentioned yet. I'm gonna nominate Barrera vs Morales 1, Round 5
Bill "Caveman" Lee vs John Lo Cicero had a barnburner of a Round 4 and 5 as well.

Re: Greatest Rounds ever
For Me.....Rd 12 of Froch vs Taylor
Was the most exciting ending to a fight i think i have witness unfold in real time....I was one of the only Real believers in Froch at the time and the comeback him made in that round while down on all cards to end the fight with seconds left....

Didn't Taylor have a pretty good Rd 2 against Pavlik?

Re: Greatest Rounds ever
I know what I'm about to say is MMA so this might not count, but a round I think of is round 1 Pat Barry vs. Cheick Kongo.
