    Keep forgetting to mention this, but I'm a genie with the powers of resurrection and time travel and all the other powers you can think of. But I only really like granting wishes about prizefighting. The question: you can dream up any card you want, of FIVE bouts between any boxers from history. From Ali vs. Tyson and Hagler vs. Golovkin, to Inoue Vs. Marciano and Mayweather vs. Wilder. Just pick an undercard of four bouts, and your ultimate main event.

    Feel free to choose venue, ring girls, or even some sexy outfits for your fighters' ringwalks. Want to watch Amir Khan come into the ring at Wembley wearing a tutu, then get knocked out by Roberto Duran while Julianne Moore watches from the sideline? I can make it happen.

    Caesar's Palace, Las Vegas, Nevada on HBO Boxing

    Roberto Duran versus Pernell Whitaker, Lightweights, 12 rounds
    Marvelous Marvin Hagler versus Sugar Ray Robinson, Middleweights, 15 rounds
    Wilfredo Gomez versus Danny Lopez,, Featherweights, 15 rounds
    Salvador Sanchez versus Eusebio Pedroza, Featherweights, 15 rounds
    Main event:
    Muhammad Ali versus Rocky Marciano, Heavyweights, 15 rounds

    Paula Abdul, my good friend Sunset Thomas, Halle Berry and Sharon Stone would be among the panty and bra-only wearing ring card girls, Arthur Mercante Sr., Richard Steele and Mills Lane the referees, and Jimmy Lennon Sr., Chuck Hall and Michael Buffer would combine announcing duties. The HBO team would be Larry Merchant, Barry Tompkins and Sugar Ray Leonard with Harold Lederman as the unofficial HBO judge!

    Half of Panama would be present and i suspect, half of the United States and Mexico as well!

    As far as outfits...I can see Duran coming in with a leopard skin robe or something, Pedroza with the Panamanian flag on his trunks, Whitaker wearing those blue trunks and blue robe on him, Ali dressed like Apollo Creed in Rocky Uno, Sugar Ray Robinson in some pink robe and pink shorts, Hagler in his dark purple robe with equally colored trunks, Sanchez wearing a Mexican sombrero and white robe and trunks, Gomez wearing his typical Puerto Rican flag shorts and robe, Lopez with his Native American style feathers but going a bit more "Felipe Rose of the Village People' with an Native American motif and brown leathered trunks, and Marciano in an extraterrestrial type of robe but with his traditional white trunks beneath the robe.

    Good match ups. I could go with Hearns Robinson at 147 as well.

    A great card, but it's within my power to grant you one more bout as you only chose four - unless you want to donate it to the guy below you who picked about ten. Not a huge fan of your ring girls but I will make it happen. Who do you see winning those fights?

    Great picks, however: I'm a pretty good genie but I can't do seven bouts. I'm giving you the first five you mentioned because those are the most interesting. We genies tend to be time-consumingly dedicated to our craft so I've no idea who most of your ring girls are. Are you sure you wouldn't like Miley Cyrus or Billie Eilish instead?

    I suggest you Google search the ladies. Yvonne De Carlo played the mother on the Munsters series in the 60's. She was something else in her youth.

    Wait a minute! What kind of genie are you? You can bring dead boxers from diffrent era's back to fight eachother but Can't do 7 bouts in a single event? Something ain't right.

    I see Duran by technical knockout, Gomez by a third-round knockout, Robinson, Sanchez and Ali by close decisions.

    I'll add one more fight to it, thanks!

    Yeah okay champ, how many fights between Ali and Marciano can you conjure up in a night? Or a week? Or a decade? I'll wait.

    I'd go with these I think, though Robinson - Hagler is a great fight, and did Duran ever fight anyone like Sweet Pea?

    If I were a genie, I could make as many as one could wish. I would be of the highest 1st order of genie's. Curlew level genie's are about as useless as a fork in a sugar bowl in the world of genie's. Novice to beginner level at best. If they showed any promise, I might let them wash my carpet or polish my lamp. Most of the time, Curlew genie's clean the real genie's toilets and underwear.
