    could have happened

    Roy Jones vs Lennox Lewis at heavy in 2003

    if Roy had challenged lennox for his titles instead of Ruiz in his venture into heavy he would have brutally Knocked out

    any other examples of fighters who moved up in weight class during their career who would be taking too much on?

    How about when Mayweather was calling out Winky Wright.

    Mayweather was fighting at 135 and Wright was at 154.

    **** - even little ass Vic Darchinyan was calling out Roy Jones at the beginning of the year. Picture that.

    to be fair,im sure Roy knew he'd get killed so didnt really pursue it.i cant blame him for that.he'd have been an idiot to fight lewis.

    imagine the carnage when lewis connected one of those big old right hands on jones chin :shock:

    would have been a very stupid fight with only one outcome, jones being carried out on a stretcher.

    agreed.i was disappointed in hatton for that.he tried to insult our intelligence with the 'it'll be a war/gattis a warrior(true enough)/fans fight etc smoke screen

    gatti was on the best run of his career, the #1 contender in the division and wbc titlist...

    when hatton wanted him, he had won a tough decision over some nodoby dutch guy

    Darchinyan was talking about fighting at 122, the winner of Marquez-Vasquez.

    He wouldnt have a chance, either one would have him KOed.

    Also Lewis-Foreman

    Foreman wouldve been set to fight Lewis had he been given the win in the Briggs fight. I think Foreman woulda taken the fight, but its for the better he didnt get it. Lewis would have left him a bloody mess.
