Best STREETFIGHT in the ring the past 50 years

[Grand Champ]

Name a war that fits that describtion

I'll begin: Bernard Hopkins vs. Antwun Echoles II

It had everything..! Bodyslams, big punches behind the heads, hits after the bell, low blows and other fouls..! Pure streetfight!

[Sugarj]

Benn vs Mclellan was a real streetfight too. Hits after the bell, Benn punched through the ropes, little defense on either side, rabbit punching, head butts.

You can probably pick any of the fights between Willie Pep and Sandy Saddler. Those fights were as dirty as can be and involved kneeing, butting, rabbitpunching, elbowing and even biting.

Pep was normally a slick boxer but the dirty tactics from Saddler brought out the worst in him and he didnt hold back himself on the rough stuff.

Or any Sandy Saddler fight really. Watch the Flash Elorde fight for some of the best work ever to open up a bad cut by using the head.


The fourth fight between Pep and Saddler and the dirtiest, both fighters were suspended after this fight. Pep reportedly studied Judo to prepare for this fight because Saddler had roughed up and dislocated his shoulder during a clinch in their previous bout.

Some of George Foreman's early fights resembled street muggings rather than boxing contests.



Rid**** Bowe was always involved in crazy stuff:

Battling Nelson-Ad wolgast 2 was said to be as brutal a war as has ever been, and fought very dirty. I would of loved to see some of the blood baths of era's gone by that were never caught on film. Rules were broken on a regular basis in many fights back then.

That's right. And the one you mentioned just might have been the dirtiest fight ever. I would have mentioned that one if the thread wasn't only for the past 50 years.

I missed the "50 years" part. My reading comprehension isn't always what it should be.

Maybe I should have done a little homework myself: The last Pep-Saddler fight was in 1951 which is nearly 60 years ago.
