Peak Chavez v Mayweather..

[Mooresy]

Tyson v Tua, both in there prime. Bombs away.

[Captain Hook]

Jamie Moore v Vernon Forrest is another

[alexpaterson]

Napoles vs Mayweather at WW Buchanan vs Marquez at LW and Hagler vs Monzon at MW

[Spiker]

Got to be peak Tyson v Peak Ali.
Also Bowe peak V Lewis peak is something I wondered about.

[boxerbob]

there are 2 i think that id like to see for the following reason.....

1. holyfield vs frazier - all out war , most action packed fight ever , my 2 fav boxers - frazier wins by split decision

2. whitaker vs mayweather jnr - would love to see mayweather schooled with whitakers right jab - sweet pea by UD

[n1ebf]

Calzaghe - Hall

[hitman09]

3 Ali fights
Ali - Louis
Ali - Tyson (just to shut up those Tyson nuthuggers who say he'd win)
Ali - V. Klitschko (to see how he'd deal with the giant)
Others
Marco Antonio Barrera - Barry McGuigan
Sugar Ray Robinson - Sam Langford
Henry Armstrong - Manny Pacquaio
Paul Williams - Harry Greb
Bernard Hopkins - Joe Calzaghe (at their peaks)
Ricky Hatton - Arturo Gatti
Julio Cesar Chavez (senior) - Oscar De La Hoya (at their peaks)

[n1ebf]

Ricky Hatton - Arturo Gatti

that would have been some spectacle, prime for prime. I go Gatti, inside.

[banjo]

Julio Cesar Chavez v Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Marvin Hagler v Roy Jones Jr.
Sugar Ray Leonard v Sugar Ray Robinson
Nigel Benn v Herol Graham
Joe Louis v Muhammad Ali
Mike Tyson v Joe Frazier
Bernard Hopkins v Carlos Monzon
Erik Morales v Wilfredo Gomez

[Greg Nicholas]

Duran v Mayweather 135.. EUBANK of Cronin/Rocchi v CALZAGHE of Kessler..

[n1ebf]

I'm not the oldest on the forum but how about Frank Bruno vs. James Buster Douglas.

[Carbo]

Aaron Pryor against Roberto Duran at 135

Juan Manuel Marquez against Azumah Nelson

Sandy Saddler against Manny Paquiao

Tommy Hearns against Gerald Mclellan

Bob Foster against Michael Spinks at 175

Roy Jones Jr against Marvin Hagler at 160

Ray Mancini versus Ricky Hatton

Floyd Mayweather against pre-Chavez Meldrick Taylor @140

I would like to see Mayweather against Duran at 135, too. Ohhh, that would be sweet. Seeing Floyd brining his gangsta, keepin' it real entourage to the press conference, and Duran, looking on at the circus like a sneering fickin' pirate. And then Floyd starting the trash talk about how he's the greatest ever and this and that, and just watching the knowing look of distainful hate on Duran's face. You'd just have to roll Duran up to the ring in a cage, and lift up the gate at first bell, and watch him go at Mayweather like a velociraptor at feeding time. Yeah, that would be good.

And also, I would love to see any fight of Sugar Ray Robinson at his true peak at 147, of which there are no tapes. I once heard the absence of tapes of Robinson's peak being like not having recordings of Sinatra in the 50s.

[bigjack]

chavez vs duran
hagler vs mike McCallum
hamed vs azumah nelson
hearns vs julian jackson
foreman vs lewis

Would also have liked to have seen Calzaghe against Hagler at a catchweight.

[Jacopodb]

You gotta be kidding me. Don't get me started on this...

Monzon vs Hagler
Tyson vs Dempsey
Mayweather Jr. vs Sugar Ray Robinson (at welterweight)
Henry Armstrong vs Juan Manuel Marquez (at lightweight)
Joe Louis vs Alí
Foreman vs Lennox Lewis
Marciano vs Holyfield
Pacquiao vs Duran (at lightweight or welterweight)
Benvenuti vs Pavlik
Hearns vs Canelo (at superwelterweight)
J. C. Chavez vs Locche
Loi vs Arcari
Pernell Whitaker vs Shane Mosley
Calzaghe vs Froch
Duran vs Lomachenko (at lightweight)
Harry Greb vs Archie Moore (at light-heavyweight)
Napoles vs Sugar Ray Leonard (at welterweight)
McClellan vs Golovkin

There is more I forgot, for some reason. There might be much more to come...

[oogiebe]

lennox lewis v ali Lewis too big and too good, but Ali never ceased to amaze! 50/50
ricky hatton v roberto duran Duran would find a way
mayweather v sugar ray leonard SRL would take him out.
julio chavez v jmm Chavez was a monster in his prime.
mike tyson v george foreman Frazier/Foreman II
nigel benn v marvin haggler Haggler all day and twice on Sunday
etc,etc
