    HBO won't show them because of Arum's bull**** matchmaking. If he fought Duddy, HBO would show it (not that Duddy is a huge threat, but it's a fight HBO could sell).

    As for fights to change... I'd like to Change Willard/Johnson. Who knows... maybe end up with Johnson/Dempsey (even if it'd be an old Johnson).

    If you watch the fight again,you'll see that Tommy was ready to go after rounds 1 and 2.Had those either of those rounds lasted 20 seconds or more,Tommy would have been starched.

    All you would have needed in that one was a real referee willing to do his job and you might have seen a different result.

    I'd change Hameds pro debut to a loss, and he would retire after.

    Nigel Benn Vs Gerald mclean- Think everyone knows why,
    Also Michael watson VS chris eubank.

    Both of the above were great fights, but what happend to two of those fighters as a result of the fight is truly saddening.

    Lewis / Vitali Klitschko (Let Vitali get a solid decision win)
    Lewis / Holyfield I (Give Lewis a clear win)
    Tyson / Holyfield I (Give Tyson a hard fought, but not "lucky looking" TKO)

    Thus, Lewis beats Tyson & Holyfield clearly (and fights Tyson earlier).
    Then, Vitali clearly beats Lewis via TKO and the HW division actually has a clear flag bearer -- the man that beat the men...... I wouldn't want to see Vitali KO Lewis, he wouldn't need to. It would have been nice to see a (relatively) young Vitali defeat an older (but not completely faded) Lewis -- that's how it should be!!

    Hopkins' loss to Calzaghe.

    Jones getting knocked out by Tarver.

    I would like to change the results of Collazo vs Hatton. A- i had it as a robbery- and the entire WW and Jr WW divisions would be a whole lot different.

    Another good one would be if Tzyu could have beaten hatton- You'd have never had this whole English bit that we are exposed to...

    Its interesting that you would change the outcome of certain fights, because you dislike a particular fighter, rather than changing an outcome to suit a fighter that you actually liked.

    Hatton-Collazo was something like a robbery though, I thought as well.

    Tyson - Holyfield II

    If Tyson would have won that fight a Rematch would have been even bigger than those two!!!!
