Picking from the classic weight classes, what would you all time card look like for a top nights entertainment? Here's mine, see if you can come up with something better. Lightweight - Julio Cesar Chavez v Roberto Duran - an all out war! Two ATG's but Duran has just a bit too much for Chavez in all areas and wins a clear UD Welterweight - Sugar Ray Leonard v Pernell Whitaker - Whitaker gives Leonard fits, countering him all night. However, Leonard's flashy busts impress the judges, and he wins a contraversial split decision. Middleweight - Marvin Hagler versus Sugar Ray Robinson - Beauty versus the beast. However, Hagler is overawed on the night and Robinson wins a one-sided decision after a close opening few rounds Light Heavyweight - Ezzard Charles versus Roy Jones Junior - Jones Junior is up on all three judges cards when he is stopped in the ninth round. Heavyweight - Ali versus Tyson - Topping the bill, Ali survives the onsalught from Tyson over the first six rounds, boxing on the back foot, countering beautifully, and takes the decision by 5 rounds. What a night!
Featherweight: Pep vs Sanchez A good boxing match here. Lightweight: Saddler vs Ike Williams 2 similar hard punchers in a war. Welterweight: Leonard vs Robinson The 2 sugars thats all you need to say Middleweight: Hagler vs Monzon A brutal war of attrition Light Heavy: Dick Tiger vs Bob Foster i predict a war. Heavy: Louis vs Tyson The biggest debate in boxing. my results Pep UD Willimas KO Robinson KO Hagler SD/draw Foster UD Louis KO

LW - Duran vs. Armstrong (or Mayweather, but I don't want to use him twice). WW - Hearns vs. Mayweather MW - too hard to narrow down right now. HW - not to beat a dead horse, but any combo of Ali/Tyson/Louis would be good.
