    Rumble in the Jungle II - Probably in South Africa would have to be a joint main event - fight 1 - Klit brother v Haye, fight 2 the other Klit v Adamek

    Thrilla in Manila II - would be 100 times bigger than the original - Pacman v Floyd. Have Donaire on the undercard for a bantam belt

    Drama in the Bahamas II - ?

    With today's media such events would turn boxing back to the mainstream back pages of the tabloids

    Great ideas IMO but probably unrealistic. Floyd travelling outside the US? and to the Phillipines? Hell might freeze over but that **** aint happening, although it would be amazing if it did.
