    Naz Hamed v Barrera. Hamed never changed the way he fought once, never tried to improve his style other than different ways to knock a guy out, never needed to, then Barrera just stopped him doing it and Hamed became mortal.

    With all that skill Hamed had i had hoped that the defeat would of driven him to improve his all round game and he would become invincible, but alas the defeat did the opposite.

    Ofcourse id also of liked to of seen Mayweather v DLH part 2.

    I also add Pernell Whitaker vs DLH to the list. That fight definitely needed to be done again !

    I would have also liked to see RJJ vs Toney again but at 175lbs, so that the weight issue was an instant non issue...

    Oscar - Tito is the first one that comes to mind. They would have made huge money and since they both came out of the first fight with less credit than the entered with, a second fight seemed like the obvious move.

    I'd love to have seen Pac-Marquez III at 135.

    As posted earlier, Hopkins vs. Calz would have been good. Especially with Naazim in camp the second time around.

    But for me it has to be Toney vs. RJJ. Jones was an absolute monster but I kind of look at these two guys as being the Kobe/Lebron of boxing. One is an absolutely monstrous physical specimen, the other has the most complete and refined skill-set of his generation. Awesome clash there.

    Jones would of beat him the same way again. His style was all wrong for counter punchers back then, which is why Toney didnt exercise the rematch clause and Hopkins priced himself out of negotiations

    Nuff said!!!

    However I must say that the ODH vs Tito rematch did not happen because of ODH's primadona tendencies. All he had to do was switch places on the contract and the fight was on but he was too good for that. Tito went on to bigger and better things.
