    Bring back prime Ali, but with a different name, face and nationality. Just to see how much of a chance he would have to perform in today's division without pre bias.

    Greb to shut up the morons that think because you can’t see someone on film their accomplishments don’t count even though he’s beaten some good fighters that there is footage on……

    I’m not convinced Bud would beat 147 Cotto or the 150 version of Margarito. Stylistically, don’t think he has the power to stop Margo and it could look like margo vs cotto 1.

    Funny thing is, a way past prime Pac beat the no.3 WW meaning Pac at 40 still beat the best opponent compared to any of Buds opponents.

    Sugar Ray Robinson, circa 1942-1950. That way, we get to see him in his Welterweight pomp and it gets fully filmed too.
