    Don’t trouble your head with who would win the fights.

    Let’s say that you can make a press conference for a fight, between any two fighters from history, and you have to sell tickets for the press conference.

    Who would you pick?

    Roberto Duran vs. Ricardo Mayorga

    also

    Rid**** Bowe vs. John Ruiz (not that I'm really interested in what they may have to say but anything with Rock Newman and Norman Snow - two of the most obnoxious human beings in boxing - would have to be good.)

    Roberto Duran/Jake LaMotta...I wonder if Duran would talk to Vicki LaMotta, like he did to Juanita Leonard...Could get very nasty.

    This would be crazy...an avowed separatist v one who inter married...Add into the equation both are ego maniacs...This would be combustible. I think this takes the prize for being the most nasty press conference...We have a winner.

    My favourite so far. Duran-Mayorga could have been tasty too.
