    Take two guys that are similar in something and make the craziest mythical match-ups of all time.

    I'll start with this one: Dustin Nichols vs Harry Duiven Sr. (Two of the fattest boxers that ever climbed in the ring)

    Honorable mentions:

    Henry Akinwande vs John Ruiz (two boring clinchers with awful styles to watch)

    Charlie Zelenoff vs Brian Sutherland (two worst boxers ever)

    Rocky Marciano vs. nicolay Valuev. Both HW champs/titlists. The size contrast would be funny.

    The Greatest of All Time vs. The Best Ever, each doing rope a dopes on opposite sides of the ring for 12 rounds, with Howard Cosell and MVC leading the cheers.

    Biggest Knucklehead Scrap: Young Zab Judah vs Adrien Broner

    Dark vs Light: Crawford vs Hatton at 140

    Who Goes to Sleep 1st: Mugabi vs Julian Jackson at 154

    Battle of the Bulge: Moorer vs Toney at HW

    Last but not least, “Somebody’s Overgrow Must Go”: Levan Ghvamichava vs Nikolai Valuev. Despite the huge size disparity, I imagine this would be a “hair raising” matchup.

    Windmill Wilder and anyone who is not a tomato can or pensioner. That really is mythical.
