    I was just reading a Povetkin-Price thread. Every time I think of that fight, I laugh a little at the image of Price's little head almost being knocked off his shoulders like a coconut at a fair. Are there any other match-ups that have the same comedic potential? I would kill to see Golovkin-Khan, because nobody gets KO'd more amusingly than Khan. Any others? Keep it plausible, don't put a flyweight in with Wilder.

    McGregor vs Malignaggi. For a few months it looked like a possibility.

    Malik Scott v Hughie Fury.

    Pure comedy in the ring, "Shades of Audley Harrison" v "Shades of Ali".

    Mayweather Vs Pacquiao II

    It would make me laugh just to see May and Pac fans go toe to toe over two old, faded and past it fighters.

    Thread after thread with "IV" in the title, Thread after thread of "118-110" in the title.

    Two sets of fans deluding themselves, living in the past and remembering the best of both fighters when in reality it would be a blatant money grab.

    McGregor-Crawford would be entertaining for the six rounds it would last

    You know what, it would be hilarious.

    We could crack jokes about mobility scooters and toupees all day :D Meanwhile the forum goes into a general meltdown amidst the hype. Pac and May could start a new major bank with all the dosh they'd cream off the noobs :lol:

    Katie Taylor v Khan. I'd love to see Khan chinned by a woman.

    Brook/Mayweather with poor Amir Khan fighting cheap Mayweather knockoff Adrien Broner on the under card for a fraction of the money Brook is being paid to fight Mayweather.

    Joshua/Dustin Nichols, Nichols gets 50/50 split.

    Even though I'm a Brit. I'd love to see a derailing night with a bunch of our "up and comers" being KOed by legitimate professional boxers. A few hype jobs being brought crashing down in one night would be a laugh.
