    Yes, i have thought of that also. I think that Hearns style is just wrong for Floyd, and i think Hearns is one of the rare few fighters that would have beat Floyd.

    Probably but I always though PIPINO s style wore him down after 11 defenses. Especially after the Shields fight where I though PIPINO hurt Randy every rd. But in 1978, WOW. PIPINO THE TERROR HE WAS INDEED. WOULD LOVE Cuevas vs Duran December, 1978

    Apologies I actually meant that for Brixton Bomber regarding Hearns and Mayweather but I didn't reply under his quote.

    I do agree a fighter like Cuevas definitely got caught by the game, Hearns and Duran timed it right for facing a faded version. Still good wins though

    You reckon it would attract the most women in history to view a boxing match?

    Yes! Really need a more decisive ending to see who was better.

    Chosen almost entirely by the criterion of curiosity:

    Liston vs Foreman
    Ali vs Joe Louis
    Roy Jones vs Ezzard Charles
    Roy Jones vs Walcott
    Holmes vs prime Ali
    Whitaker vs Mayweather
    Mayweather vs SRR
    Sugar Ray vs Sugar Ray
    Sugar Ray Robinson vs Molasses Morty Goldstein
    Willard vs Cooney (no, really)

    Butterbean vs top five strawweights at the same time, complete with jugglers and Big Top music

    Pintor vs Chandler great. I waited too but gotta say Gomez-Pintor was one of the 5 best fights I ever saw and well worth missing Chandler Pintor for
