    Wlad vs Lewis or Wlad vs Holmes?

    Tyson vs Lewis or Tyson vs Ali?

    Duran vs Pryor or Chavez vs Pryor?

    Duran vs Mayweather or Pryor vs Mayweather?

    Whitaker vs Duran or Whitaker vs Mayweather?


    Discuss, then pick

    Wlad/Lewis
    Chavez/pryor
    Duran/mayweather

    Wlad vs Lewis I hardes one and I lean toward Lewis. Chavez pryor I lean a bit more to pryor, I think he just has more levels to his game, though chavez at his best is really amazing. And lastly Mayweather/ Duran. Duran takes it at lightweight, at his peak he was a complete fighter with an outstanding offense, and his defense flowed so well with it. At WW it a lot more close a less athletic, but a far more experienced ring general is Mayweather, and just just don't know if Montreal Duran could beat him.

    Tough call, I tend to lean towards Duran but I'm admittedly biased.

    Then what would the second fight have been? Whitaker against Mayweather? rather than substitute one for the other, let's just add it to the list.

    wladimir vs lewis would be much harder fight than wlad vs holmes... wladimir beats larry clarly and lewis beats wladimir in a competitive fight but lewis finally would find his chin.
    tyson vs lewis and ali prime vs prime would be even.. very competitive, i think that ali beats tyson by decision and tyson would beat lewis in a war.
    i think that the very best mayweather would beat both duran and pernell, whitaker makes duran looks stupid just like he did with chavez ( this draw was he biggest joke in the history). duran would lose against both.
    duran beats pryor and chavez
