I've always been an MMA fan first and foremost, but as one of the few boxing matches I've seen, that leaves a big impression!

On to some of the other recommendations
Like mentioned before, the Israel Vasquez vs Rafael Marquez trilogy is a must-see barnburner, with plenty of violence and skill.
Also, the Marco Antonio Barrera vs Erik Morales triology is great.

Some other good fights: Miguel Cotto vs Sugar Shane Mosley, Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel Marquez II, Kelly Pavlik vs Jermain Taylor I.

Now, for some more crude fights, with less skills involved; Sakio Bika vs Jaidon Codrington, Arturo Gatti vs Micky Ward tril

Make sure you watch Miguel Cotto vs Antonio Margarito, but first watch Miguel Cottos greatest hits and Antonio Margaritos greatest hits on HBO channel on youtube before watching the fight

The guy mentioned technical fights. Can't believe nobody mentioned Mayweather...Although it was refreshing! Hopkins, is also very technical...Unfortunately technical equates to boring some times. Marquez is technical, but definitely not boring. I agree Hagler was very technical, but not the Hearns fight. Allot of the others fights mentioned were anything but technical ie. Gatti?!

Wanna see a great technician, Arguello was one of the best ever. Speaking of......

Gatti was a very pictorial fighter. Every punch he threw and every punch he took looked made for the movies. Just cause it wasn't practical doesn't mean it wasn't entirely technically unsound.

And besides, the Ivan Robinson fight was my #1 choice. Brilliant display of boxing in that fight, primary by Robinson.

Yea, but Gatti can make anyone look technical.

Mosley-Margarito if you want to watch a beatdown thats recent.

EDIT: Actually watch Margarito-Cotto first to set the stage.
