    Imo, it would be the biggest fight in this decade. Top 10 ever maybe ? Let's talk if that fight happens and we will know the result, that's also important.

    I would say after Hagler/Hearns Ali/Frazier1-3 Leonard/Duran Louis/Schmeling Tyson/Holyfield
    I can imagine it selling as much as Mayweather/DLH did.

    When was the last time two superstars fought to decide who is the best of their era? It's going to be huge, it's the biggest fight of the decade, as for all time that's impossible to rank.

    No it wouldn't.

    It would probably be towards the bottom of the top 10.

    It would be right up there. You have two of the generations best fighters, essentially prime, and on a steady collision course for Number 1 P4P status....

    It's up there with any of the Superfights of the 80's in terms of significance. The 2 best fighters in the sport in their prime fighting for a place in history. Doesn't get any better than that.
