    I need fight posters of the following fights...

    Ali -Frazier I
    Dempsey - Tunney I
    Shane Mosley - De La Hoya I
    Sugar Ray Leonard - Roberto Duran I

    this is for a documentary I'm working on...I'll give you a credit on the doc...thanks in advance.

    * the documentary is about some of the biggest fights in boxing history (aside from any fight PBF and Pac has been in, and there is a reason for that.) so...if you can think of any fights that were HUGE aside from the ones I listed, it would be greatly appreciated. Keep in mind that I'm not talking about the results of the fight...I'm talking about the anticipation and buildup, so it doesn't matter if the fights turned out to be a stinker.

    I forgot to add...this is the opening narration to the doc...I'm a good writer, not a great one, so if anyone can think of a more poignant opening, that will also be greatly appreciated.

    "Big fights...(flash photos of various big fights.) in boxing, there is nothing quite like them. Big fights have a way of captivating the masses. In boxing circles, the anticipation leading up to fight day can be enough to drive a sane man crazy. The talks, the preparations, the training...the waiting...then finally it comes...fight night."

    Other big fights:

    Jack Johnson-James J. Jeffries

    Joe Louis-Max Schmeling II

    Marvin Hagler-Ray Leonard

    Marvin Hagler-Tommy Hearns

    Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier III

    Muhammad Ali-George Foreman

    Modern big fights: (don't know if you are going to add some what recent fights so that's why I'm putting this in a different section)

    Lennox Lewis-Mike Tyson

    Tito Trinidad-Oscar De La Hoya

    Roy Jones Jr.-John Ruiz

    I was going to add a couple of more, but I don't really remember if they were highly anticipated, I was a bit too young to remember. Also, I couldn't find a poster of Tunney-Dempsey. All I could find was a program.

    Off-topic comment, but do you post at EA Sports?
