Evander Holyfield-Mike Tyson 1: Somehow, this good fight, great event, won 1996 Fight of the Year by The Ring over much more exciting action fights like Marco Antonio-Barrera-Kennedy McKinney, Arturo Gatti-Wilson Rodriguez, Rid**** Bowe-Andrew Golota 2, Tim Littles-Frankie Liles 2, and Kevin Kelley-Derrick Gainer 1. The action was pretty good but not great, with all the holding. Barrera-McKinney was light years better.
Oscar De La Hoya-Ike Quartey: 2 very exciting rounds, 10 chessmatch rounds with ocassional action. Of course years later people remember it as some kind of great fight, remembering rounds 6 and 12 and not rounds 1 through 5, and 7 through 11.
