Leonard-Hagler. I've scored it numerous times and felt Marvin genuinely won the fight.

Holmes-Holyfield/McCall. Would've led to the Foreman fight which would've been extremely interesting, even when they were both 43 (in 1992) or 46 (in 1995).

Foreman-Briggs. Foreman clearly won the fight and it would lead to a Lewis-Foreman fight, which, even in 1998, would've been interesting for me. I'd be interested to see how Lennox dealt with someone who was such a strong, hard punching wall who had a jab to match his own.

Hopkins-Calzaghe. I felt Bernard won the fight and it pisses me off seeing Joe retired with no losses.

Martinez-Cintron. Robbery of the worst sorts. Martinez was winning the entire night, actually knocked Cintron out (Kermit was counted out and everything) and was forced to continue fighting once Cintron stopped bitching about how Sergio couldn't possibly hit that hard. Sergio had to settle for a draw that night, which is garbage. They say that to avoid a robbery you need to take it out of the judges hands...well...Sergio did, only to have it put right back into the judges hands and they really shafted him.

Obviously, as a huge Cotto fan, I would change the outcome of Cotto/Mayweather. It would have given my favorite fighter of this era a legitimate ATG win and altered his legacy. He would be known as the guy who beat the unbeatable rather than a guy whose career was likely altered due to Margo's wraps.

Historically, I would change Ali/Frazier III. I've always been more of a Frazier guy. I come from a blue collar background and think it would have been great to have Frazier win the rubber match of that rivalry.

How about you?
always thought that he deserved and would be the one to beat Floyd

Just to set the record straight...

Hoya Vs. Trinidad <~> De La Hoya gets his "W"
Hoya Vs. Mosley II <~> De La Hoya gets his "W"
Hoya Vs. Sturm <~> Sturm gets his "W"
(Thus Eliminating the Hopkins fiasco)

Good thread. Everything I would've said has already been said, although some recent shit decisions come to mind.

The judges get their head out their ass and give the victory to Jose Luis Castillo the real winner and only man to beat Floyd. Dang not even a draw. Floyd is still among the best, but undefeated my ass.

Floyd Mayweather is my favorite boxer, but what if he did not get the nod vs. Castillo that first time?

Without an "0" to protect, would he have been more willing to make the most challenging fights, feeling the need to constantly and continually prove himself?

I'll always wonder.

MAB getting the decision in the first battle of the trilogy with Morales. Such as sweet fight. I think they really did leave their primes there. Imagine MAB being 3-0 against Morales! Lol Oh snap!
