The 5 Fights you wish would've gone different

[squiggy]

But but but, the footage was edited to cut out the 3 hour break Ali/Clay got !!

[Nile4000]

Roberto Duran-Davey Moore: Without the thumb, Roberto has hell on his hands.

Michael Dokes-Mike Weaver: Most likely, Dokes would have won anyway, but what if the fight was held in Los Angeles or New York?

Michael Spinks-Eddie Davis: In a 15 rounder, would Eddie still be able to cofound Michael?

Jim Watt-Howard Davis: Most likely, Watt still wins, but what if the fight had been held in London, or Paris?

Marvin Hagler-Vito Anterfermio: If the fight was held in Houston, Los Angeles, or Detroit, maybe Marvin gets the belt.

Jose Luis Castillo vs Floyd Mayweather 1 - Castillo would have his rightful place in the Hall of Fame, and there'd be no exaggeration of Floyd's legacy, plus it was the first robbery I ever saw as a Boxing fan which of course began a trend of seeing entirely too many.

Marcos Maidana vs Floyd Mayweather 1 - Just would've been wonderful to see Maidana get this one. One of my favorite fighters.

Golovkin vs Canelo 1 and 2 - He deserved 'em both, and it would've been nice to see one of my favorite fighters get the big one. Something always seems to conspire against them.

Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward - See above

Tyson Cave vs Oscar Escandon - What this caused just isn't fair. Escandon got a few title shots after this, Tyson Cave was basically never heard of again, and I thought he won this fight 120-108. Just despicable.



Extra: Castillo vs Corrales 1. I wanted the stoppage for Castillo in Round 10. Fight would be less Legendary without the dramatic turnaround, but I personally would enjoy it twice as much.

Yeah Castillo vs Hatton wasn't a fun night for me as a Boxing fan. That was pretty much the end of Castillo as a serious top level guy.

When you make a bet and within a minute realize your fighter is shot.... its a deflating feeling

1. Mosley vs Mayweather - I’m not a FMJ hater, but I wish that early right hand floored him for the ten count that night. Would’ve been legendary.

2. Maidana vs Khan - Wish Khan had folded under the immense pressure late in the fight. Would’ve been a career changing win for Maidana the way that Broner later would be. In a way Khan’s perseverance made it arguably a better fight, but I was rooting hard for Chino to stop him late. He was my favorite.

3. Pacquaio vs Bradley I - Terrible decision. Still bugs me to this day that Pac got the L that night.

4. Danny Garcia vs Keith Thurman - Didn't like the decision in this one either, and it would have been a great win for Danny’s career. Never been a Thurman fan. Just not.

5. Gonna borrow my last one from another poster and say Cotto vs Margarito. That’s sad man. Just sad. The worst of the sport.

Margarito wins and while im mad i lost money it was still a great fight and experience

Then come to find out the SOB cheated cotto out of a win and me out of thousands
