Top 12 Greatest Heavyweight Slugfests
Nice piece here. Only omission I could think of from honourable mention section was Morrison vs Ruddock:

Great quote from Foreman here on Lyle: “Nobody, other than Sonny Liston in sparring, stood and punched it out with me with any success.”
Real shame there's no footage of Liston and Foreman sparring.

Moorer v Cooper was a crazy fight.

Tua v Ibeabuchi I think it was a record for the most punches thrown in a heavyweight fight.

I second rapid's post. Tua v Ike has to be there... It was the most brutal HW fight I've seen. That fight, and Foreman v Lyle top my list. As usual, the list focuses far too much on the bouts which involved American fighters and misses out the other classics!
