I'm going to be completely traditional in terms of heavyweights and keep them where they were. (though Marciano-Holyfield is one of the greatest spectacles i can think of ever, Marciano win btw)
Ali-Marciano Holyfield-Haye (he edges Jirov, but he gets destroyed anyway) Charles-Spinks Jones-Calzaghe Hagler-Monzon McCallum-Hearns Robinson-Leonard Pryor-Locche Duran-Whittaker (i might change this to Gans when you all aren't looking) Arguello-Chavez (Floyd my numero uno though) Saldivar-Sanchez Gomez-Morales Olivares-Jofre Tapia-Watanabe Lynch-Perez Gushiken-Chang Lopez-Calderon |

I'm gonna' try and not go for the usual Halger-Monzon/Ali-Tyson/Pea-Duran style combos, though of course I'd be psyched to see those fights.
Heavyweight-Joe Louis vs Jack Dempsey Light-Heavy-Bob Foster vs Ezzard Charles Middle-Julian Jackson vs Nigel Benn Junior Middle-Mike McCallum vs Tommy Hearns Welter-Kid Gavilan vs Jose Napoles Light-Welter-Aaron Pryor vs Meldrick Taylor Lightweight-Ike Williams vs Carlos Ortiz Super-Feather-Alexis Arguello vs Floyd Mayweather Feather-Naseem Hamed vs Danny Lopez Super Bantam-Eder Jofre vs Wilfredo Gomez Bantam-Carlos Zarate vs Ruben Olivares Super-Fly-Khaosai Galaxy vs Christian Mijares Fly-Pascual Perez vs Benny Lynch Light-Fly-Jung-Koo Chang vs Myung Woo Yuh HBO could do half, Showtime the other ![]() EDIT: Didn't bother to read the '8 Bouts only', pick your favourite eight

Amazingly I altered mine straight after, and without seeing yours. I forgot Light-Welter and saw the Benny Lynch book on my shelf and thought 'shit, Perez vs Lynch is much better' eerie, we have some similar picks.
I didn't do Cruiser mainly as there's no one I feel can stand up to Holy. Toney vs Qawi is interesting though. |

Tiger vs Lamotta (WOW!)
Also, ain't seen the Driscoll footage that has been making you wet your pants the last few weeks. Explanation (sorry to thread starter, hopefully you will find this interesting nonetheless) and is it on the tube? |

Get ready to cream in your kecks my friend. Now the Driscoll-Pep fight was clearly a joke because it's between two purest of pure boxers. But seen as though you asked, you will definitely laugh, but i'm impressed because regardless of how it looks it's just the fact that the other guy can't do shit so it qualifies as a schooling imo. And i love that.

It would be, i feel Yuh is not quite the master boxer that Gushiken was, but still a great ring general who liked to really use strength to own the centre of the ring and his defence for such a fighter is good also.
