What is your dream fight?

[The Green-eyed Kenshiro]

Rocky Marciano vs the winner of Joshua/Wilder

I want to see if the old guys were as good as people say they were

I wouldn't put him against Lennox or Tyson because he'd get destroyed but AJ/Wilder are significantly below that so it's doable

 

[Streeter]

Those are some really good picks. I particularly like SRR vs RJJ and SRL vs Mayweather. Those would be meetings of the greatest of all time. I'd add Tyson vs Ali to that list too.

For a current fight I want to see I'd say Lomachenko vs Garcia and Usyk vs. Anthony Joshua

Just thought Tyson Foreman is better as Ali would be too smart for Tyson an win too easily imo. Tyson Foreman wpuld be 2 bombers just going to war maybe greatest fight from a "just bleed" stand point in history. Foreman in human raw power v Tyson Power an speed. Lomo Garcia would be great but looks lie Mikey wants to go up to fight Spence which imo is really dumb as Spence is great an 12 pounds is a,lot..

That

Maybe my second fav behind Gomez - Morales.

would have been a good fight as well. I like morales long rights and his cool headedness in the ring but Gomez was a beautiful combination puncher. Honestly it has shades of Gomez vs Sanchez..

 

[Jezza Art]

Pretty boy Floyd vs Lomachenko

 

[JRY82]

Whittaker vs Mayweather
Pryor vs Manny
SRR vs Hearns
Tyson vs Frazier
Hagler vs Toney

You're probably right about Ali being too smart for Tyson, but I just want to see how prime Ali handled prime Tyson. Ali was fast but Tyson was blazing. Yeah I'm not sure I believe Garcia wants to fight Spence as he's always shooting his mouth off about who he wants to fight. I'm really praying for a Loma match up.

 

[zapataxiv]

I

Whittaker vs Mayweather
Pryor vs Manny
SRR vs Hearns
Tyson vs Frazier
Hagler vs Toney

like hagler vs Toney that is a pretty good fight make it 15 rounds and I think marvelous stops Toney in the 14th or 15th

Hearns vs McCallum at 154
Hagler vs Hopkins at 160
Holyfield vs Frazier at CW

Hell yeah

My dreamfight would be prime Ali vs prime Tyson

 

[HardasNAILZ]

Conor McGregor vs Cassius Clay

This would be fantastic, a real great battle. Could Cassius withstand a left hook from McGOAT? I really don’t think so.

 

[elanimalsantana]

Pryor vs chavez would have been amazing

I have always wondered about Pryor vs Duran

[RizinSon88]

Byrd vs. Wilder HW
Toney vs. Haye CW
Ward vs. Maske LHW
SRL vs. Jones Jr. SMW

 

[Large Hound 77]

Loma v Crawford would rock..

 

[Cross_Trainer]

Rocky Marciano vs the winner of Joshua/Wilder

I want to see if the old guys were as good as people say they were

I wouldn't put him against Lennox or Tyson because he'd get destroyed but AJ/Wilder are significantly below that so it's doable

This.

The old vs. modern debate is more heated in boxing than any other sport I know of. Marciano vs Wilder/Joshua winner, Louis vs Klitschko, Ali against Lennox or somesuch -- these would settle a LOT when it came to comparing heavyweight era's.

Throw in Robinson vs modern welters or middles, while we're at it.

Also, I want to see Corbett against a modern top lightheavyweight, using MMA gloves and legal dirty boxing, just to see whether the old pre-glove style would work in early 20th century conditions against modern guys.

You'd only need half a dozen of these bouts before we got a barometer of boxing's evolution.

pac-arguello

Byrd vs. Wilder HW
