    although not a showcase of boxing skills, margarito vs mayorga would have to be entertaining

    it's a good match up but don;t think it will be better than the froch vs kessler fight

    i'd prefer to see kessler v bute

    oh i know most won't agree with me but I would of loved to have seen floyd vs leonard at 147, (i know it wouldn't of been a war, but would of been entertaining)

    Hagler-Monzon would've been more tactical. Both guys were generally patient boxers. If Hagler decides to fight like a bull like he did against Hearns, I think Monzon would tie him up quite a bit and do a good job at slowing the pace.


    Matchups that would've been brutal fights:


    Bobby Chacon-Arturo Gatti
    Erik Morales-Bobby Chacon
    Manny Pacquiao-Aaron Pryor
    Frank Fletcher-Iran Barkley
    Micky Ward-Marcos Maidana
    Jesus Chavez-Juan Diaz
    Joe Frazier-Evander Holyfield

    Well, rumor is , the closed private match they had was pretty much a draw over 5 rounds.
