McGrath/Donald vs Atherton. Maybe slightly lower key in the grand scheme of things, but I enjoyed them!

Think Papal Bull Vs The Duke is one to go down in the history books.

Giants Causeway vs Tiznow (i still scream in the hope he'll get up every time i watch it)

pretty much every race Giants Causeway raced in, what a horse he was!

Galileo vs Fantastic Light. Absolutely epic!

Ouija Board vs Alexandra Goldrun. The best fillies battle i've ever seen.

I enjoyed the early days of Wenger versus Fergie. Quite the spat between them at one time and showed clearly the pressure these guys can be under to spout off now and again.

James Wade and Phil Taylor looks like it could be fun in the coming months in the Darts.

Also Nadal and Federer in the tennis and in particular the Wimbledon final this year was just outstanding tennis. Could also last for a few sesons yet too.

I am struggling for anything in the recent past or further at present.

England Test Team against....

Lillie & Thomson,Walsh & Ambrose & Shane Warne.

More often than not a tad one sided.

Best ever Botham v The Aussies.
