    Ali Vs Tyson if prob the one that would gain the most interest but if you could choose any two fighters across history to fight who would they be?

    Good call, I would replace Dempsey with Frazier personally, but both would be exciting fights no doubt.
    stay safe buddy.

    Marciano v Frazier I think would be the greatest HW fight all time
    Marciano v Holyfield would be great as well.
