Review by AllTheBestFights.com: 2000-12-22, nice and close fight thanks to a great performance by both boxers and an outstanding finish: this time the fight recommended by “mattsnow81” between Ray Oliveira and Vince Phillips is very close to get four stars but not as exciting as his previous recommendation (=Emanuel Augustus vs Ray Oliveira and Courtney Burton vs Emanuel Augustus – check out also the ranking of the best boxing fights of 2000).Ray Oliveira entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 41-7-1 (21 knockouts) while his opponent, the former Ibf light welterweight champion Vince Phillips, had an official record of 41-5-1 (30 knockouts). Oliveira vs Phillips was valid for the vacant NABF super lightweight title. Watch the video and rate this fight!

Compubox explosion :) I’m glad you guys enjoyed it. The problem with this fight is they are very very busy punching, but they don’t connect in a high percentage. Still, a very good one in my view :)
