    the best bet IMO would be Kirkland/Angulo.

    Agree with the Kirkland-Angulo mention.

    And would add Marcos Maidana-Brandon Rios.

    Kirkland-Angulo for as long as it lasts.

    Margarito vs Mayorga I did'nt see the fight last night but what i've seen of the 2 of them in the past theres no way it would'nt be a war.

    I'm not to sure we have the fighters in the right weight classes for this sort of fight. I may have said David Tua-Sam Peter until we saw Sam absolutely hammered to the point where he looked like some guy off the street against both Vitali and Wlad II, then Tua showed us he couldn't get around a Barrett ready for retirement.

    Possibly Cintron vs Kirkland?

    Audley harrison and david haye ;)

    In all seriousness I could see Khan being involved in something like that. He does like to 'man up' at times even if it isnt the smartest of things to do.

    Juan Manuel Lopez vs Yuriorkis Gamboa would be immense.

    but it would be tough to match Hagler-v-Hearns in any case. would need supremely ideal circumstances.

    Angulo - Kirkland ....Kellerman's nuthugging ass can forget about a Martinez - Kirkland matchup because James is no where near ready for that.

    I do not think we have any two guys around the same weight who have the right skills and the right temperment to produce a Haglar/Hearns fight.

    Gamboa - Juanma?

    Both throw bombs, both can be hurt - could be short and explosive
