Old Classic fights you would or would NOT like to see in current Color/HD format
There's quite a few either way, but I'll keep my list short:
I can't imagine Joe Louis vs Schmeling in HD PPV. I can't even picture it In my head
I would enjoy Clay/Liston I in color
I can watch all of SRR's fights in color if possible. That would be amazing

EASY
Jack Dempsey vs Jess Willard: Just to see if Dempsey's glove was loaded.
Jack Johnson vs Stanley Ketchel: To see the aftermath of Johnson's massive overhand right to Stanley's face
Rocky Marciano vs Joe Walcott: For Rocky's split nose and for the Suzy Q that ended the fight

Everything is better in color, we see in color, we think in color, give me color or give me death. Lol
Does that answer, what to me is a stupid (pardon me) question?
There are movies which are a lot better in black and white.
The intros for Gatti-Ward III were done in black and white

I'd love to see every old fight with the technology we have today. Imagine seeing 7 different angles (including a super slow mo) of the "phantom punch".

Nothing before 1945 is of any interest to me.

I am sure Rocky’s nose was split against Ezzard Charles.
Joe Louis in colour would be a dream as his boxing style is so efficient that any fighter today could use it.

Interesting question
Gans v Langford
Demarco v Bassilio 2
Jeanette v Mcvey marathon
Greb vs Tunney 1 and 2
Pep v Saddler 2
Jackie Kid Berg v Kid Chocolate
Fullmer v Basilio1
Louis v Pastor 2
Louis v Conn 1

I'd never like to see those above available in baclk and white ever colourized or doctored though.
