    Mayweather v Pacquiao haha

    Benn v Toney definitely
    Toney v McClellan would have been great.

    Tyson vs Bowe would have been carnage.

    Apparently Bowe always fancied his chances against Mike...... I do too actually.

    I don't think Mayweather vs Pacquiao would be a thriller to be honest. Floyd is a bit like DLH in that there's massive hype behind all his fights, yet most of them don't live up to their billing. In fact I've been bored to tears several times watching him.

    Thinking of a few more now.......

    An early 90's matchup of Lewis vs Holyfield
    Shane Mosley vs Tito Trinidad
    Hamed vs Morales - Naz gets badly ****ed up here :hey
    Khan vs Thaxton
    Jamie Moore vs Wayne Alexander

    Also forgot to include Hatton - DLH.

    How that fight never got made at WW was beyond me. That would've easily been one of the highest grossing fights wherever it was held, Vegas or Wembley.

    Vitali Klitshchko V Enzo Maccarinelli.

    Maccarinelli said before he didnt rate Vitali at all - so it would of been intersting to see how Enzo handled him around 2004/2005.
