    For the casuals Ali - Tyson.

    Id go for;

    Lewis - Bowe
    Lewis - young Tyson
    Klitschko - Klitschko
    Foreman - Liston
    Dempsey - Marciano
    Johnson - Louis

    I like this list. Dempsey - Johnson is a one sided one for me though.

    yes these are good matches, though I think Louis takes Tunney and Foreman should take JJW though I wouldn't rule him out, Ali outpoints Holyfield, Tyson over Frazier and I'm going with Dempsey, though it might be a case of too tall, a Top S-HW against a HW.

    This one might have been the sleeper of all these mystical fights. I give Tunney...a much more conservative and bigger & stronger fighter than Conn a very good chance of pulling off a massive upset.
