    Leonard - Hearns
    Duran - Leonard

    I'd say there were four great performances in these two fights.

    Trinidad-Joppy
    Trinidad-Hopkins

    I could show the fan how good Hopkins was since those fights happened to be right after the other in reality. Although, since I'm in Puerto Rico those wouldn't be the fights I'd choose to lure them into the sport.

    I'd probably go with Vargas-Quartey and Trinidad-Vargas

    Ok, quite a few people have already mentioned the fights I was thinking. So I’m going to deviate slightly and pick one for the future....
    • Pacquiao beating....Barrera, Morales, Oscar, Hatton, Cotto and Margarito
    • Mayweather beating Pacquiao
    :eek:tta

    (Great thread by the way)

    it's kinda weird that under Popkins' rules, Barrera can't come out on top in the Morales-Pac-Barrera triumvate but both Morales and Pac can.

    This is what I'm talking about. Yes let's show a novice highlights of Floyd Mayweather cherry picking fighters who aren't even true top tier opponents. That will teach people! GOOD THINKING!

    Leonard Duran I
    Arguello Pryor I

    I give up.

    The fighter that wins the first time, gets beat the second time... in a nutshell.

    You could say... Leonard-Duran 1 & Hearns-Duran.
    or
    Arguello-Mancini & Pryor-Arguello 1.
