Foreman and Bowe take turns turning each other's face into hamburger meat for the full 12 rounds.
Bowe avoids the kill shot that Moorer could not, and secures the UD, 117-111 variety.
Antonio Tarver (right after the Jones KO) vs Joe Calzaghe (before the Lacy fight)

Tarver By Comfortable UD.
In my opinion, Tarver would knock down Calzaghe sometime in the early rounds. Tarver was very good at this stage, and imo, would beat any version of Calzaghe.

Calzaghe on a very close decision. He'd have to come on late, but activity sees him through. MD12, some dispute the call.
Pryor vs. Trinidad at 147 (Probably a long-shot, but if there's any 140lber in history mean & insane enough to get it done against Tito...)
Edit: I was beaten to it. McCullough by close decision over John.

I'm not sure where you want them to meet, I'll assume the most likely spot is Welter? Hey, you know what? Oscar is just
too nice a guy to win this fight, leaving aside for a moment Duran is plainly the superior talent. Duran would bully him badly, losing only two of the first three rounds, before winning every one thereafter, en route to a stoppage in eleven. De La Hoya doesn't come out for the final round.
Duran's next opponent will be no such sweetheart --- "The Toy Bulldog" Mickey Walker, meets Panama's favourite son, Roberto "Hands Of Stone" Duran. Fifteen rounds, for the World's Welterweight Championship. Jay Nady is the ref (he may faint at all the fouling

Neither man's best weight class, but the hands of stone are hard to pick against here. Duran in
a razor thin SD.

Interesting. I like Rosenblatt on a points decision. I've never been all that impressed wirth Andrade, myself *Shrugs*.

i thought there might be an upset on the cards for this one but taylor eventually dumps cervantes on his kid backside in the 12th for a count of 10.
just watched popeye destroy bluto with a mammoth right uppercut after the bearded cuban-cigar smokin' colossus looked to have him beat. you can watch this classic bout on the following link;

but how would the "sailor man" fare against a modern great like dreadrick tatum? yes he would give away a few pounds to the fearsome guy who ended the career of springfield mauler, homer simpson, but i give him an outside chance...

I guess so

eubank decisions abraham over the course of 12 rounds. no KD's. its close but clear.
looking for the scalp of a man in a heavier division and maybe a shot at dempsey, harry greb takes on "gorgeous" georges carpentier. both men in great condition - 15 rounds.

Carpentier doesn't come out for round twelve. He's down on all cards at the time --- 7-4, 8-3, 8-3. Greb simply has too much of everything for the gifted Carpentier to keep pace.
Speed meets power...Maxxy Baer (1933) & Floyd Patterson (1960) over fifteen rounds

Re: Hypothetical Match-Up Game

by Goodnight, Irene
Good match (& you spelled all names right! LOL). I think Tszyu takes a split decision...or perhaps Arguello does. It'd be very narrow. Tszyu isn't in Arguello's (or the 1982 Pryor's) class, but the size difference is noteworthy, & Tszyu was a great, great fighter. His power & (underrated) sense of timing would take a toll on the hittable Arguello. No one was more precise than Arguello, though, & even at this weight, make no mistake --- he can hurt, possibly even floor, Tszyu.
I give up. This bout is a draw!
Two fellows with suspect chins, decent heart, questionable conditioning, & a strong punch...

I will go ahead and say Cotto by SD.
Cotto hits the deck in round 2 but finds the groove and momentum to slightly edge out a pre-prime LaMotta. 8)

Farr is too slick & crafty for Cooper, winning a somewhat wide decision.
Nielsen loses convincingly to Braddock. He's never in the fight. Speed kills.
