    Ken Norton is a pretty good idea. He seems to have been overlooked simply for being in such a ridiculously strong heavyweight era. He'd be on my list of boxers to bring back.

    Trinidad would be interesting to add to the welterweight scene. or Robinson just to open a can of whoop ass from Floyd all the way up to Pavlik.

    Absolutely, but also with Cus D'Amato. I think losing Cus was devastating to Tyson as a fighter, as well as losing a mentor.

    But hell yes, late 80's Tyson would steam roll the HW division now. Maybe cut weight to Cruiser and steam roll that one, too.

    The one & only "High Priest of Violence":deal.... ROBERTO DURAN:bbb​

    He'd grow a 2nd dick with excitement at the prospect of murdering every ****er from today's 135's to 147's & if Mayweather is scared of pac then he'd flee the U.S. in terror if he thought he had to face the "Panama Animal":deal:D​
