This would have been one helluva a fight, both all time great lightweights at there peaks fighting for the lightweight title. this match would have happened around 1908 but blackburn being a nut case commited manslaughter and went to prison thus the title fight never happened.

who would u have taken in this great all time lightweight fight and why?

ill take joe gans in a razor thin decision but this would be one of the best ever tactical boxing matches
