    I could name about 20+, but i'll just mention a few.

    Ali, Tyson, The Fab Four, and Prince Naseem Hamed. (I grew up watching him, every bout was exciting, especially when he chose the round he was to knock his opponent out - usually getting it right aswell.)

    Welter is stacked at this moment, so I would have loved to bring back SRL against Floyd. But I guess no point as Floyd would never fight him either. :deal

    Roy Jones Jr for the Super 6 tourney. So he could silence all these glass jaw ***s when he completely dominates the tournament.

    I would pay an awful lot of my money to see Roy vs. Pavlik...


    And just as much to see the real Roy Jones vs. Bernard Hopkins, and to have him in the Super 6...


    But I would mortgage my house to see Mike Tyson get up under the chin of one of those Klits...

    i remember way back when your got interested in the demon, did you ever look into joe gans like i suggested? these two were some bad asses.

    tyson to answer the original question, it would not only take care of our terrible hw division it would probably take care of the ufc problem because the average guy only really cares about heavyweights

    Tyson so he could knock out the Klit brothers
    Chavez so he could beat up manny at 140, im not to sure he could do it at 147.
    Sanchez so he could prove that he could have been even greater.
    Duran so he could beat up Manny and Floyd.
