    Some mouthwatering contests in that list.

    I think Usyk v Holyfield may already be the best cruisers ever.

    Pryor - Duran would be epic, I don't think these guys would like one another.

    Watching Chavez trying to come from behind vs Arguello would be so intense.

    Can you even call yourself a classic boxing fan if Mcvey vs Mendoza ain't at the top of your list?

    Pryor had a lot of respect for Duran.

    Never knew that however I would imagine if they were matched up it would be very heated.

    Yeah, 2 alpha fighters with crowd pleasing action packed styles looking to overwhelm eachother. Respect will fly out the window when the bell rings. I favor Duran but this would get heated real quick

    Fully agree, great fight. I think the differences in this fight is defence. Pryor would take a lot of clean shots off Duran, however unlike most opponents, Stone Hands would not get disheartened when Pryor comes back.
    I fancy a late Duran stoppage win in a fantastic encounter.
