    I meat Mccallum- always spell it wrong. If Mccallum had been fighting Hagler instead of Mugabi he could have won imo

    Mcallum vs any of the fab 4 would have been great and whose to say he wouldnt have beaten all of them?

    Good calls on Ayala, IMO the biggest "Could've been someone...!" in all of boxing!

    Whos McCullen?

    I agree with Hagler v Leonard II alright, but Calzaghe v Jones Jr would be a mismatch, as would Hamed v Pac (RJJ and Manny would destroy them).

    How about:

    Lewis v Tyson in the mid 90s
    Hopkins v Jones Jr II between 1999 & 2003
    Morales v JM Marquez
    Whitaker v Chavez II
    Gerald McClennan v Roy Jones Jr
    De La Hoya v Trinidad II (with sane judges)
    V Klitschko v Lewis II
    and instead of John Ruiz, if it had been Jones Jr v Holyfield

    I just to think Mosley would win against Trinidad now I see it as a blowout for Trinidad. I think at welterweight or 154 Quartey had the jab to keep Tito well-behaved but Mosley would've wanted to get even for every blow landed and go to war, always a bad idea against Mr. Cinderblock Trinidad.
