To JUST ONE fight in history...which one would it be?
Personally, I'd have to be there for Graziano/Zale 2.

Tommy Morrison- Ray Mercer
those 3 first rounds are just fireworks!!!! :)
in the fifht round knowing how it would end I would grab Mercers Stool and brake it on his head, maybe he would go down by that.

Assuming I wouldn't know the outcome, the pick that comes first to mind is Archie Moore/Yvonne Durelle. Saw it on tv..greatest comeback I've ever seen.
Would like to see Charles/LLoyd Marshall II.....which I didn't see but have first hand reports. Two all/time greats. Charles gets off floor to score a 6 round one punch kayo.
And for action...of course either one of the first two Zale/Graziano fights.
And...but hey, we're supposed to pick only one, aren't we.

Robinson-Gavilan. There were 2 of them, one in 1948 and the other in 1949. The one in 1949 was 15 rounds for the welterweight title, and the one in 1948 was a 10 round non-title fight. I would prefer to see the 1949 title fight, but would like to see either one. I don't think that there are tapes of either fight.
A great matchup of two of the greatest fighters of all time.
If you could back in History

The first one that comes to mind is Ali-Liston I, but thats after reading all the other posts and not wanting to pull a repeat. Plus, I'm a huge Ali fan and canonly imagine the intensity at that fight/postfight

I can't imagine anyone who knows how it ended wanting to see McClellan/Benn. I didn't like seeing the replay of the ending of Griffith/Paret on the History Channel..and I did see that one on live tv .
