    What Domestic Fighter From Any Era Would You Pick To Bring Back To Fight In This Era For A Alphabet World Title If They Could Come Back In There Prime???

    Your Choice Can Have Fought For The World Title But It Has To Be A Domestic Fighter Who Never Won A Legitimate Version Of A World Title.

    It Could Be A Fighter That Never Even Got The Chance To Fight At World Level and Was Stuck At Domestic Level But You Felt They Maybe Had More Potential Then What Was Achieved.

    That's a good choice that would be a great fight.

    I'm still racking my brain thinking... at the moment i have Graham,Watson,Brodie,Schwer and many more running through my mind. Tough Choices for me as there so many British fighters i felt could of gone onto better things.

    Herol Graham or Michael Watson. Probally go for Watson as it was such a sad way his career ended.

    Actually scrap that, Lennox Lewis just to show these Klitschko pretenders what a real heavyweight champion looks like.

    Tommy you didn't read the first post properly, otherwise I would have said Benn and Thompson.

    Apologies.

    I just saw Jimmy Wilde and thought it was anybody seeing as he was the Flyweight World Champion.

    I'd say Herol Graham then. Or Michael Watson.

    I'd love to see Henry Cooper, to see how good a cruiser he could have been.

    Failing that, Cowdell or Herol Graham to get the world title they deserved.
