    I would be interested in seeing Langford vs Johnson, Langford vs Jennette and Johnson vs Ketchel. I would have also found it interesting to be in the gym seeing the Liston/Foreman sparring match back then as well. That should have been something to see.

    Dempsey/Willard I would have liked to see Douglas/Tyson as well but to see a prime Dempsey in action would be unbelievable.

    I was actually thinking this one - the consensus P4P greatest fighter in history pretty much at his best vs a great opponent.

    For me, it will be indeed a fight that was LONG, and not film.
    So no Louis Schmeling or Ali Fraizer.

    It will be something like Corbett Sullivan, or Pearce's title winning fight. Or even Greb Walker.

    Greb-Tunney 1

    Simply because we have no footage of Greb & this was his greatest victory as well as Tunney`s only defeat.

    Other`s that I was tempted to choose were....

    Morales-Barrera 1
    Robinson-Gavilan 2
    Ali-Frazier 1/Frazier 3/Foreman
