    Naseem Hamed, for his sheer entertainment both inside and outside the ring

    A phenominal puncher with a unique style, his condidence/arrogance with his interviews after fights always made me smile

    I always thought what a Hamed v Mayweather fight would do in PPV. Both love the camera, both flash, cocky, arrogant with great skills

    The entire 1970s heavyweight division!

    And welterweight Sugar Ray Robinson, just to see him win a total shutout against Mayweather

    :good

    Unfortunately, the current champions at middleweight (even the last several years' worth) would be wet napkins against the Bull. There are some very promising young prospects in the division right now, but it's still inconclusive if they'd even be able to hang with a peak LaMotta long enough to make it interesting once they develop.

    Lewis, so Vitali can get him into a ring and finishing knocking him out.

    Prime Lewis, Prime Vitali....mouth watering. But I see only one conclusion, and it's not the one you came to... ;)

    Harry Greb vs Sergio Martinez would be very interesting, although they'll have to get a strong ref to stop Harry from headbutting.
