Foreman knocks Tyson the fuck out like he did Frazier

Hearns uses his range to keep Floyd at bay and keeps him on the ropes

Duran is the GREATEST LIGHTWEIGHT AND LATIN FIGHTER OF ALL TIME, hell those were Chavez' own words, Duran outworks Chavez and beats him to a UD

Louis fought Marciano, albeit way past his prime, a young prime Louis easily smack Rocky around the ring for a late stoppage

Marquez VS Salvador Sanchez..... Marquez UD - too little known about Sanchez and what he would have been able to accomplish due to his untimely death, but going by his resume already at the age of 23, it's hard to say that Marquez would have been a clear winner

Duran VS Chavez - already answered in the other, Duran by a landslide

Pryor VS Chavez - this one comes down to how would Pryor handle Chavez' pressure, and if he would have his special water bottle, IMO Chavez by late stoppage

Chico Corrales VS Gatti - at 135 it would be in Corrales' favor and he would have won a close UD, at 140 although a war the weight would benefit Gatti more than Chico and he would have wore him down in the later rounds and stop him, also add in that Gatti was able to stick more to a gameplan at 140 further giving me the feeling that Arturo would win

Dream fights indeed. Don't know about Hagler-Monzon... never seen much footage of Monzon. Duran-Pryor would be a classic... but Duran had too much firepower for Pryor to handle. Sugar Ray vs. Floyd? I'd go with Sugar Ray. He had the complete package... offense, defense. You can't beat his list of victims, either. Benitez, Hearns, Hagler. All better than anyone Floyd has ever faced.

Only one I disagree Marquez V Sanchez , Sanchez was something special remember him beating Nelson, so for me Sanchez ud.

Jack johnson vs anyone..

I'm going on the cheap...Michael Moorer vs Tommy Morrison. Ike Quartey vs Aaron Pryor

1. Mayweather Pacquiao
2. Rios vs Lucas Mathysse
3. Canelo vs Kirkland

Always up for a list...

RJJ vs. Dariusz - Many moons ago I was young & naive and you can say a bit delusional. Because I actually thought Dariusz would beat RJJ. Now that I'm older and have learned more about the sport and see it without my "fanboy" goggles I can say RJJ would have beaten Dariusz. I don't think it woud have been an easy task for RJJ as some people with whom I discussed this with made it out to be. Nonetheless I can say that I was wrong.

PBF vs. Cepillo - This fight at 130 would have been a classic. Both guys technically sound and tactical with their styles. Cepillo would rough up PBF and I think he loses a point somewhere in the late stages of the fight. PBF wins a close dirty & hard fought fight.

JMM vs. Naz - It's a known fact that Naz turned down the fight. Whatever events took place AFTER the initial offer is all part of the Naz sideshow. Naz was an outstanding fighter in his time, fearless & fierce. JMM was and is still today an elite fighter who is a mastermind in the ring. He picks opponents apart like nobodies business. Early Naz would try to impose his style but would fail JMM would counter and catch Naz from various angles. He would work the body and slow Naz down. Naz would try to bait JMM to trade and would succeed. Naz's hand speed would give him the advantage and would look better in those exchanges. JMM would continue to box and score points using his ring generalship. For my likings JMM would have decisioned Naz.

Arguello vs. Pac - Early on Pac has his moments and wins some of the early rounds by using his aggression. Arguello settles in mid-way and starts to connect with his straight right. Late in the fight Pac catches Arguello with a big shot and rattles him. They trade shots and Arguello responds dropping Pac with picture perfect right hand. Pac gets up only to be dropped again and counted out.

Monzon V Hagler is my dream match up. Monzon was tall like Hearns, but had a granite like chin, Hearns hit Hagler like no other other fighter in their fight and Hagler stayed upright and knocked Tommy out. Monzon would not fall so easily, he wasn't called 'shotgun' for nothing. He had a crushing right hand and Hagler wouldv'e felt it. Monzon UD

Duran V Pryor would be a war of attrition, it should've happened. Duran UD

Leonard V Mayweather jr: What a chess match, along with Whitaker V Mayweather, in this chess match one false move and your King is taken and it's checkmate.

No disrespect to the Hermoso but PAC took flush shots from guys like Cotto and Margarito bigger punchers than Alexis. I don't see Arguello stopping Pacquiao. Peace bro:)
I also think Pacquiao has more power than Arguello so it is also possible that PAC might be the one scoring a stoppage here.

Bro... I like Pac, and of course I'm a Cotto fan, but........

Pac didn't take too many "flush" shots from either Cotto or Margarito... or it would've been good night Manny. Cotto was snapping Pac's head back with jabs, but early in the fight got caught with some big shots and never recovered. Miguel was never able to fully establish his attack on Manny. Pacquiao was even more elusive against Margacheato... and only got caught pretty good to the body toward the middle or later rounds in the fight. I'm not taking anything away from him (Pac).

Arguello had a beautiful straight right hand, and exquisite combinations. And don't underestimate his power, either... it was definitely there. The only thing that may have given Arguello trouble against Pacquaio would be Pac's handspeed. But if they traded punches enough, I have no doubt Alexis had the power to drop Pacquiao... no doubt whatsoever.

Whoa! wait a minute...
Tony a harder puncher then a guy nicknamed "The Explosive Thin Man"?
I have to strongly disagree with that one. There is nothing you could tell me that would lead me to believe Tonys a harder puncher then Alexis. Just off the top of my head I know Alexis has a bigger TKO percentage. I can't think of a single opponent that Tony has stopped with a single punch the way Alexis did to various opponents.
Cotto I can see an arguement there as Cotto has a higher TKO percentage and has one punch stoppages.

If you want to say that Pac took shots from Cotto & Tony.
Keep in mind Tony hurt Pac with that body shot in the 7th rd I believe.
Also JMM has been able to rattle Pac, would you not agree that Alexis hits harder then JMM?
