    Hagler-Hearns would be fantastic, even though my favourite fighter got knocked out......

    I'd also love to see Frazier-Ali I just because I loved seeing Frazier getting one up over Ali.

    Do we know the result before the fight? If we don't, Ali/Frazier I every single time. If we do, probably something with John L. Sullivan or Harry Greb. Any of the Greb/Tunney fights and Sullivan/Corbett, probably.

    Of course you know the results. It has already happened and you are traveling back from the future to see it.

    No matter. Being able to have said I was there would have been enough.

    Ketchel-Papke III. I'm dying to see what made Ketchel so effective.

    Nah, get Dempsey back in there too fast and he would have gotten his head knocked off. It was good for Dempsey that it took a little longer!
