    If you were granted a wish and you could change the outcome of one fight, which fight would it be?

    Since my favorite fighter is Tommy Hearns, I would probably change the outcome of Hearns vs Leonard in 81. It would be great to have Hearns win that one.

    My second choice would probably be Pacquiao vs Mayweather. I can't stand Mayweather so it would be great to see him lose this fight.

    i would have panama lewis lose his special bottle in the arguello fight, and let the fighters determine the outcome on their own.

    I would have Vitali actually getting KOed versus Lennox, so we don't have to hear his tedious fans still jibber jabber about the result fifteen years later.

    Clenelo V Triple G to a GGG victory. Then GGG would have gone on to unify with Saunders and we'd have an undisputed Middleweight champion. That's never gonna happen now for another 5 years at least, the division is fractured again.

    Give Ortiz 20 seconds more in the seventh round vs Wilder and see him KTFO Wilder with a nice left uppercut. Oh yeah, i would pay for that.

    Are we talking about fights where the many people thought the loser actually won?

    If that’s the case, definitely Castillo vs Mayweather just slightly more than Canelo vs GGG.

    If it was a straight up loss, then Martinez vs Cotto. Broke my heart seeing Sergio go out like that :(

    I would change the Martin Murray v Sergio Martinez result. At the time, it didn't really bother me that Garcia got the nod. However in hindsight, Murray deserved that win, Martinez would have been done, instead of holding that title a bit longer as a has been. GGG probably would have gotten a bigger profile even quicker and we wouldn't have had all the BS with Cotto/Clenelo as 'catchweight' middleweight champion, avoiding Triple G and hogging the limelight undeservedly.
    Probably Golota v Bowe 1 or 2 also. I overestimated Bowe and it would be interesting to see how Golota may have performed as a heavyweight champ without the DQ stigma afterwards, perhaps a real 'sliding doors' moment.

    Sergio deserved every second of that beating. He disrespected Cotto for years prior to their fight. This doesn’t mean that Cotto and Roach didn’t wait to see a chink in Sergio’s armor before they took the fight. I just enjoyed seeing Sergio eat that humble pie.
