What 2 ATG'S throughout history would have made the most exciting fight? Most boring?

Skittlez · 10-12-2012, 05:22 AM

I think Tyson vs 70's Foreman would have been one of the most exciting h2h's.

Most boring will probably be

Current Wladimir vs Prime Larry Holmes would probably had been a god damn awful fight with Larry winning most of the rounds in the most boring way possible.

Tiger-Walker.

Holmes v Lewis would be fascinating i reckon.

Tyson v Frazier would be a good tear up.

sean1982 · 10-12-2012, 05:42 AM

Tyson 88 holy 91 would have been awesome, holy couldnt help but get dragged into a slugfest!

IMO, these are the fights I believe would be so exciting had it happened:

Chavez vs Arguello at 130

Dempsey vs Marciano

I'm still thinking of a lot more.

On the boring side, I think Floyd-Whitaker at 135 would be a defensive fiesta.

Dark Sider · 10-12-2012, 06:00 AM

Most exciting:

Roy Jones vs Sugar Ray Leonard
Tyson vs Marciano

Most boring:

Tough to call. Any historical great in action would be amazing to watch.

Chavez Sr vs Duran

Bombs away!!!

Roy Jones vs Gerald Mclellan

DrMo · 10-12-2012, 07:19 AM

Julian Jackson vs Tommy Hearns at 154

dinovelvet · 10-12-2012, 07:30 AM

Young Manny v young Hoya.

Suga · 10-12-2012, 08:31 AM

Mayweather vs Whitaker

Chappy112 · 10-12-2012, 08:35 AM

Roberto Duran vs Manny Pacquiao.

Momus · 10-12-2012, 10:10 AM

A battle of the Sugars at WW would be compelling. There may be more action-packed fights on paper, but it would be a fascinating duel as in addition to their physical gifts they had ATG intangibles and ability to adjust in a fight.

Chavez-Duran at LW would be incredible.

Armstrong-Pryor at 140 would probably set new punchstat records.

I wouldn't call them ATG's, but Winky Wright v Marlon Starling would have been boring as fuck.
