    I think David Tua vs George Foreman would be a war

    Saad vs Johnson 1 was a war.
    Gatti vs Ward 1 is the only fight that I was hoping that they wouldn't have a rematch as I feared one of them would get seriously injured.
    Pryor vs Arguello 1
    Castillo vs Corrales although I thought it was marred a little by the mouthpiece rule.
    Barrera vs Mckinney was pretty good.
    Barrera vs Morales 1_was insane- you could see how they resented eachother by how they tore into eachother.

    You are definitely a thinker. I don't know of anyone who would have thought of those.

    I wanted to knock out a list which featured each division Bantamweight and above. I was trying to envision fights that might explode very early. 168 might be my weakest pick and i'd be relying on Benn going berserk.

    Jeff Fenech vs any Bogan from Western Australia
    Mike Weaver vs Earnie Shavers
    Razor Ruddock vs Tyson 3! apparently DK was trying to arrange this fight... But then the **** allegation happened and the Holyfield bout was scheduled for November of 91. I think if this third fight would have happened it would have been absolute mayhem.
