    How many great fights were we not treated to in the late 80's, early 90s. theres so many great fights that never happened. Here are some that i can think of:

    Nunn v mc Callum
    Nunn V Jackson
    Hearns V Nunn
    Hearsn V Mccallum
    Benn V Jackson
    Toney v McCllelan

    theres many more. it really was a golden era

    Yeah, there's a bunch. McCallum-Leonard would have been a beauty as well. Hearns-Kalambay and Hagler-Kalambay would also have been very interesting fights. Probably not actionpacked, but very interesting.

    Ah, didn't read the thread title closely enough, apparently.

    Fixed.
