Top 5 in the history of the sport?
I mean, can we name many more bigger heavyweight fights? I can't think out more then a handfull actually. Can any of you guys? Will there come any bigger heavyweight fight any time soon?

Ali vs Frazier 1
Ali vs Frazier 2
Ali vs Frazier 3
Ali vs Foreman
Ali vs Spinks

God that was easy

I expect Jarrell Miller to be at his fittest for his bout against AJ, weighing just under 300lbs, with Anthony Joshua entering the ring around the 245lbs mark. So I expect the combined total weight of both fighters to be approximately 545lbs.

In terms of size, the Valuev-Beck is likely to continue being the “biggest” world heavyweight title fight in history for the foreseeable future.

In the context of non-title fights, Butterbean’s bout against Joe Siciliano could be the “biggest” ever, with the total combined weight of both combatants being 731lbs.

What about the aforementioned Valuev-McCline title fight where the combined weight was about 590?

Well apart from the obvious, Muhammad Ali, you've not heard of Jerry Quarry, Oscar Bonavena, Jimmy Ellis, Buster Mathis, George Chuvalo, Eddie Machen, just to name a few.

Ok they were before your time. Well Sam Mc Vey, Buddy Baer, Tony Galento, Roland LaStarza , they were before my time but I know who they were. You are a boxing fan, right?

Joe Frazier? A guy who's smaller then... Well me for example, and lost all the fights he has ever fought where I actually know the name of his opponent from at all? Spinks? You mean Leon Spinks with his 17 losses? Really?
Like any of these guys would even have a 1% chance at the moments of their fights against a 20 year old Miller.

Sadly I think we have rule out C) It may of course be a case of talking nonsense in a futile attempt to defend a previous poorly thought out argument. I'd be lying if I said I'd never done that.
