    The fantasy fights that should/could have happened over the years but never reached the light of day. Which fight would have wanted to see the most, if you were to only pick 1 out of the 4 fights?

    I think I would have wanted to see JMM vs Morales the most. The action and skill level displayed would have been a beautiful fight to watch.

    Tyson Foreman would be a short explosive destruction with Tyson laid out. Morales and Marquez would be more entertaining overall.

    Joltin Jeff Chandler vs Lupe Pintor still heads my list. But off of the choices offered
    JMM Morales
    Trinidad Mosley
    Foreman Tyson
    Bowe Lewis

    That would have been an excellent scrap too. You can add Johnny Tapia vs Mark Johnson on fights that should have happened as well.

    All potential classic s there.
    Lewis V Bowe! Damn, this should have happened. Early 93 ideally.
    The earlier the fight, the more chance of Bowe winning.
    But as time goes by and we head in to the mid 90 s, I see Lennox coming out on top.
    And Tyson v Foreman!
    Was there an ideal time for the two to clash?
    I would think in early 1990, the Douglas fight gets canceled and George gets his shot.
    Tyson not at his very best, but I do think he'd be a lot more prepared for this match.
    He saw Buster as a bum, he's admitted that, Foreman s different, Tyson had respect for him.
    Could George win?
    It would be his best shot I believe, he'd take the fight to him and suck it up when Tyson s hammering away.
    George still there by 7?
    Then we could be lookin at the new heavyweight champion.

    Watching Marquez blast Morales with counters would just be too sweet; so that.

    It is either Tyson vs Foreman or Lewis vs Bowe, I think Tyson vs Foreman would be more exiting, but I would like to have seen Lewis beat Bowe which would have been the outcome

    Morales against Marquez really was the one that got away. Victory for Erik would hinge on how disciplined he could be. He if boxes like he did in Barrera II he wins.

    Lewis v Bowe. There really was no good reason why that fight shouldn't have happened other than the reluctance of Bowe and / or his team.

    Tyson would have stopped Foreman fast .. the best thing that happened to Foreman in his comeback was Tyson never fought him .. Big George's legacy as a fat man on the canvas embarrassed would have crushed his grill earnings ..

    I'd have liked to see the Bowe of Holyfield 1 against the Lewis of Ruddock and Tucker ... that would have been interesting ..
