    i like it! Not a heavy weight in sight unless that’s where you want Spinks vs Charles to take place

    Spinks vs Charles is destined for 175, though it would be interesting to argue who had the better wins at heavyweight. Just tried to focus on the most exciting fights spread across the weight classes, never been much of a HW fan tbh.

    Back in the day this woulda been a realistic card:
    A welterweight matchup of Mosley vs Marquez Juan Manuel, and a Pacquiao vs Mayweather a LOT earlier as the main event
