Bigger fight than PAC-Mayweather in boxing history ...

Leonard-Hagler?

 

Dempsey and Johnson couldve been the biggest, didnt happen.

Johnson Vs Jeffries was a big fight.

Ali involved in a couple rippers.

 

Leonard Hearns.
Tyson Holyfield II
De La Hoya Trinidad
Hagler Leonard
Louis Schmeling II

 

Ali-Foreman
Leonard-Duran 2
Tyson-Lewis
Mayweather-De La Hoya

 

Tyson-spinks for sure.
Leonard-Hearns
Chavez-taylor?

 

Trinidad -De La Hoya
De La Hoya- Mayweather
Ali-Frazier 1 & 3
Ali-Foreman
Leonard-Hagler
Leonard-Hearns
Louis -Schmeling 1-2
Tyson-Lewis
Tyson-Holyfied 1-2
Tyson-Spinks
Leonard-Camacho (Not a good fight, more sad than anything but was greatly promoted)

 

While Johnson fought in the 20s, he was in his 40s then - which is like the 60s nowadays. I doubt Dempsey against an old man would have been a big fight

 

It will be on par with the most hyped and richest no doubt.

 

i dont know but i have a feeling floyd-oscar was still a bigger fight

 

tyson-ALI

 

Tyson Holyfield before he went to jail would of produced some interesting PPV numbers !!!!!!

In recent times only Lewis-Tyson comes close.

 

Many fights thoughout the history of boxing have been billed as the fighting of the century, decade, year whatever. The outcome is what dictates a fights place in history, not the build-up. Build-up can be forgotten as soon as the fight starts. I dont know how many of our posters are old enough to remember the build-up to Holmes vs Cooney, it was un-****ing real. It seems like the network news was doing a daily report from both camps. But the fight was a one-sided fight, now its a fight that is seen as somewhat a Joke.
