I'd reinstate 'Brockton Block Buster' immediately.
Dempsey would've been whooped, but fights like Pep & Saddler would've been the same.
I think Benny Leonard would also have stayed atop the rankings.
Mayweather-Pacqiou is a fight of the decade candidate.
This might be a bit of a cheat but I'd change the decision to destroy old film for the war effort in the states can you imagine what we might possibly still be able to view today
Oscar deciding to keep fighting as he did the first 9 rounds against Trinidad.
*awaits the inevitable defensive reply from Titofan* 5, 4, 3, 2,.......
Fanman never falling in the ring. Bowie would have very well retained that belt.
There may have been a Bowe/Lewis fight by late '94, early '95 with the winner fighting parolee Mike Tyson.
I'd reinstate same day weigh ins. The current system means we get light heavies today fighting at middle etc etc
Cus Damato lives for another 10 years.
It would have been interesting, but I don't think it would have changed things that much. Tyson is a head case and he would have screwed Cus over at some point. Camille Ewald was his surrogate mother and only died a few years ago, but she didn't seem to have much influence on him.
Tyson doesn't know the meaning of loyalty and I say that as a fan! He likes to blame everyone else for his mistakes and the long history of bad behaviour, but the fact is he's not a very nice person.
How about Walcott not dropping his hands allowing Marciano to counter him and retire undefeated.
Ali was never born!
Hagler gets the decision vs SRL.
You beat me to it. I'm a huge fan of Meldrick Taylor (and Chavez), and think he deserved to win that fight, even though I think his career after outlive ended up the same regardless. Taylor was too tough for his own good but I would've loved to have seen him at least have the memory and pride from winning that fight.
