Rematches that didnt happen that u wish had..

it's pretty obvious that he made every attempt to cheat in advance of that fight and had no doubt done so in others before that.
that's why he fought with no confidence and no power and retired soon after being exposed...

end of story indeed!

1. JCChavez v F.Randall III (immediately following II, as opposed to after FR was shot).

FR clearly beat JCC in both fights, imo. The decision in the the 2nd and subsequent denial of a rematch goes down as one of the most cruel and cowardly acts in boxing history. I would've like to have seen JCC get his comeuppance or, if I underestimate him, prove me wrong.


2. Duran v Hagler II: This time an epic brawl breaks out.

Chavez V Whitaker (Should've been automatic,worst decision i have seen)
Jones jr V Hopkins (1994) (Hopkins did well in that first fight, 6 months later, who knows?)
DLH V Whitaker (It was close, possibly Sweet Pea's final hurrah?)
DLH V Trinidad (DLH deserved a rematch, he won that fight!)
Klitschko V Lewis (if not for cuts, Lewis was in trouble)
Barrera V Hamed (Only to see Hamed humiliated again!)

This is a great list. I'd just remove Barrera/Hamed -- though I know you didn't include it for the same reason -- and replace it with Hopkins/Calzaghe -- fan reaction is very mixed on who deserved the first one; although a rematch may well have been just as inconclusive.

It was a close fight and probably should've seen a rematch, Hopkins just didn't do enough to beat Joe Balls that night.

...neither did Joe Frazier

Joe Frazier was knocked down a bunch of times. Chuvalo was never knocked down, and was still on his feet with his defense up, waiting for the barrage to end.

Duran v Laing , a peak Duran would flatten him.

Your ignorance on boxing matters is overwhelming.
And your stubbornness in holding on to groundless gibberish is downright pathetic.
Too bad your opinion is but a worthless grain of sand in the beach of public opinion.
In other words, it ain't worth shit.

Carry on.
