    Naz/Gatti was being discussed? Man someone must have REALLY hated Gatti. He would be absolutely destroyed.

    Ali vs. Wilt Chambelain

    This one always had me wondering. If the fight takes place immediately I go with Ali. If Wilt has a couple months training with the right game plan he might be able to take anyone on. Now before you start critizing I would go with a boxer especially ATG boxer over athlete turned boxer 99/100. Wilt however was easily the strongest basketball player ever and a tremendous all around athlete. He would have advantages over Ali in strength (how well he developes that in pouching power would be a mystery), physical stature (reach being most important). Ali would rule in speed but how well could Wilt's jab be developed to take the speed advantage away? Very interesting would be fight. By the way Ali would have destroyed Shaq. Wilt and Shaq totally different.

    Had Cooney not gone into the tank after his loss with Holmes. A dedicated Cooney vs Holmes in a rematch would have been interesting.
