    What could be the most entertaining, fun, exciting... press conference between two boxers?

    Joe Louis vs Sonny Liston.

    That’d be a hoot.

    Joe: “He can run but he can’t hide.”

    Sonny: “He should be locked up for impersonating a fighter.”

    Press conference over.

    I’ve got you. Jake LaMotta with round the clock coverage as he was in the 40s but it’s 2022 vs Mayweather. Bonus points if he commits the crimes he did then today and it’s well known to the public. The fight is mob attended to Jake’s dismay with Trump hosting (as president) and King promoting, Mayweather is contract tied and gift wrapped with no way out and LaMotta for extra spice is forced to make 152lbs with old school weight loss methods three weeks out. Half of the crowd is also from LaMottas 1940s Bronx with all there quirks intact.The final ingredient is Jake has unmoderated access to twitter.

    Give Jake LaMotta from the 1940s Twitter and watch the world burn instead.

    For a second I thought you meant the whole crowd were clones of Lamotta.

    Roberto Duran vs Aaron Pryor.
    Just the stare down would be exciting.

    In my mind. Tyson and Duran (just humor it) I think would be endlessly funny with each throwing increasingly disturbed insults back and forth.

    Tony Galento vs Tyson Fury would be a display of unsullied class.
