Here the most epic boxing confrontations of all time:

• MUHAMMAD ALI VS. JOE FRAZIER III (1975)

The third encounter between Ali and Frazier is one of the best fights of the history, the winner said to have been the closest to death, since from the beginning both fighters gave everything, something that felt in the environment. both fighters were at the height of their careers but was Ali who retained his crown with a knockout in the fourteenth round.

• Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny Pacquiao (2015)

After five years of negotiations the fight reached a truly extraordinary media level and a worldwide impact attended by numerous celebrities. It came to qualify as the new Combat of the Century in which Mayweather arrived unbeaten and Pacquiao with 57 victories. At the end, Mayweather won by unanimous decision.

• JULIO CÉSAR CHÁVEZ VS. MELDRICK TAYLOR (1990)

One of the most dramatic and epic endings. Taylor was winning the fight since round one having it dominated, but in the last one his corner told him to look just for the round, and it was there when Chavez started hitting and just seconds away from finishing took down Taylor and won by technical knockout.

• Erik Morales vs Marco Antonio Barrera (2004)

The third fight between them was fierce since the initial bell. Both suffered injuries

and attacked until the end of the twelve rounds, being the most even fight in the trilogy where Barrera was declared the winner by majority decision.

• DIEGO CORRALES VS. JOSÉ LUIS CASTILLO (2005)

Ruthless rhythm throughout nine rounds. After Castillo was sent to the canvas twice, it was in the tenth round when Corrales spit out his mouth guard and after recovering, he started beating the Mexican in such a way that the referee had to stop the fight and Corrales won.

Of course, there are more emblematic fights that could be here, the box has given us too many moments, so tell us if you would like this list of 5 to become a list of 10.
