    Default If there was 1 fight you wish you could have attended in History which one?

    The Ali thread got me thinking about this when the subject of the old closed circut TV came up and what a huge fight Ali/Frazier was...I started asking myself which event in history (or recent depending on the person) does everyone wish they could have been at in person and why?...

    For me I would have loved to have been at Dempsey Vs Firpo to be at the first Million Dollar Gate.....

    Or

    Dempsey Vs Tunney rematch and the fact 100,000 people attended....especially at the time it was not like they were in a comfy arena with cushion seating and A/C....IMO it would have been a hell of a sight......

    Any others?

    The fight of the century. I would love to have witnessed Frazier throw the best left Ive ever seen and drop Ali on his ass...Ringside,right next to it.

    Probably Ali/Bob Foster in April of 1972. This was a move up in weight after his utter destruction of Rondon and Quarry{Mike}. He was knocked down 7 times and got ko in the 8th. Foster is one of my top 5 favorite fighters, and though not a huge event in boxing history, a fight I wish I could have attended. Plus Mills Lane was the ref, and he was a kool kat

    If not then Ali/Foreman; nuff said.

    Have to go with Harry Greb W.15 Gene Tunney May 23 1922. To be honest I would settle on ANY complete Greb match but from everything Ive read,Seen,and discussed this was a frenetic and brutal match.
    It was Grebs only victory in 5 meetings with Stylist and smooth boxing Tunney but Tunney was pulverized in a relentless drubbing,His only lose.
    Nice topic Daxx
