    Jeffries-Johnson is probably the best choice. Louis Schmelling II would be great also.

    Nice avatar chap.

    Corbett-Fitzsimmons would also be interesting. They had several cracking confrontations in the run up. Closer to home, Benn-Eubank II would be gold.

    Can you imagine it, Eubank and Benn, i know we got a lot of TV of them over the years, but this series would be brilliant.

    What about a Gomez Zarate, there's big rivalry there, wouldnt be good for the language barrier maybe, but in a perfect world?

    What about Robinson-Basilio?

    Marco Antonio Barrera vs Erik Morales 1

    It wasn't that along ago, but there was geniune hate in that fight...on both sides. Would have been intriguing.

    I think any 24-7 involving Tyson would have been interesting, but also like other members picks - Louis-Schmellng II; Johnson-Jeffries, and toss in Ali-Frazier.

    Louis - Scmelling II and Johnson - Jeffries would both be superb 24/7 series. Also Robinson - Basilio II

    There is so much footage of the build up to Ali/Frazier I, it's almost like they had a 24/7. But beyond that one, Griffith/Parret.
