Who do you watch clips of and just say WOW!

I always have the WOW factor when watching the ease of work by men like Mayweather, Ali etc but wrecking machines always give a special WOW factor

Always brings a smile to my face.

Post your clips lads

Roy Jones is the first person I thought off. His highlights always bring a smile to the face... Wish he'd a retired after the Ruiz fight..

Edit: Sorry not sure how to post the clips like you did?

Me, as you all know I love to watch a master like Toney on form. I happen to think he's even better to watch on form and more natural than then likes of Floyd, Pea, Jones Junior etc.

SRL firing on all cylindres is a sight to behold, as is Hearns, and Ali at peak was simply a marvel.

Orlando Canizales was beautiful to watch.

Sweet Pea for me..talk about earning the title "Can't be touched"..a master of evasion and plenty power aswell.

SRR at full flow and letting rip beats any as regards attack!

Can't disagree...can you imagine how hard a chin La Motta must've had?!

You gotta' include Tyson at peak and in attack mode. Was there ever a more impactful fighter in that sense. The whole world stood up. Not just his moves and punches, his look, physique, mannerisms and approach.

Duran too at peak was special. Could attack forcefully, and defend, almost simultaneoulsy, and with great effect.

A square and blocky head. That is what I think helped. Tree trunk legs too, and good shoulders.

How was the fight not stopped at 2:46 in that, disgraceful refereeing.

Just after 2:46 then.

Anyway my contribution will be Sam Langford, from the bit of footage available his power, speed and ringcraft seemed incredible.

Those shots Tyson lined up and teed off with on Frank at 5 mins 52 secs in are just animal. Pure power. How did Frank's head stay on his shoulders:p

Probably my favourite fight. 38 year old Duran fighting 4 divisions above his best weight and beating a much younger much bigger opponent in fight of the year. He was losing on points and had to win the last few rounds big and did just that knocking down Barkley in the 11th to sneak it. I love that knockdown its at 7.00 of the video..

I LOVE HIS BOOSTING IN THE RING

Hope this isn't off topic but couple of moments that made me go wow
Chico Corrales Castillo round 10 - One of the best rounds
Lennox being chopped down by Rahman - Anything can happen with the HW's
Carl Froch ko'ing Jermain Taylor - Froch mocked before the fight and then needed the ko going into the last

Jimmy Iovine

The first video I thought of was Gatti v Ward in the round of the century. Every time I watch it I get a tingle in my spine. I can't even imagine the physical effort that they used to get through that round. Amazing.

Although it hasn't got any fight footage in it I love the video of Wladimir Kiltschko's entrance against Haye last year. The fact that it has my favourite song of all time in it probably helps. The entrance was ten times more exciting than the disaster of a fight.

As for sheer poetry in motion I find it hard to get better than Toney's schooling of Barkley. That was off the charts. It was like Toney was boxing a guy who was in slow motion. He beat him every possible way he could, throwing every punch in the book.

Also, PBFs masterclass vs. Corralles is real special. So so so complete. He was on top form.

PBF's best performance for me. Felt so sorry for Corralles. He just didn't know what to do..
