    The Tyson v Holyfield fight that was being set up in 1991 was a mouth watering proposition - it was the biggest match up in boxing at the time but tysons arrest put it on ice for the next 5 years.

    Pryor v leonard would have been huge - always felt leonard was slightly intimidated by Pryor , especially when he gatecrashed leonards first retirement speech - ray looked very nervous to say the least.

    someone mentioned Arguello V Rosario - thats an intriguing matchup , el chapo had very heavy hands and was a real bomber but also he had underated boxing skills that he rarely used , but the longer that fight would go on you would have to favour Alexis due to chapo's reported stamina issues.

    As highly as I rate Robinson ( goat along with armstrong ) I think Moore at LHW would have been a step too far for him , archie was one of the greatest fighters ever at 175 - though Charles @ 175 was possibly even greater .
