Believe it or not Lewis/Bowe is one I always wished would have happened as well. Lennox one of my all time faves and Bowe one of my all time fave HW's; would have been a great fight.

Mayweather/Kostya would have been one I'd have loved to seen get made.

Toney vs. Hopkins

Salvador Sanchez vs. Eusebio Pedroza

Wright ODLH

Hatton-Witter

Mosley vs Tito

Mayweather v Cotto

I was saying on another thread earlier that I don't think we will have to worry any more about fights not been made that we would like to see - unless retirement is the reason.

So....

Lews v Bowe ?

RJJ V Benn ?

Benn v Eubank III ?

Think i would have to go with Benn v Eubank III. There was unfinished business between these two and after result of the second fight I think we deserved a conclusion

That was the first one I thought of.

James Toney vs Chris Eubank and Nigel Benn

James Toney vs Bernard Hopkins

Sugar Ray Leonard vs Aaron Pryor

Thomas Hearns vs Aaron Pryor as pros

Tszyu V Mosley.....Should have happened, both Mosley and DLH did the quick step, side step, foxtrot, mambo and preferred to tango with other dance partners!
Tszyu V DLH.....as above
Leonard V Pryor....There were reasons but....
Sanchez V Pedroza....this fight and a second fight with Nelson would have happened i am sure of it.
Camacho V Whitaker.... they talked and talked and talked and nothing eventuated, Camacho fought the big three in Chavez, Trinidad and DLH but never fought Whitaker, it would have been fascinating watching the styles.
