Re: Change one event in boxing history.
Bowie doesn't dump his belt in the trash and we get a owe vs Lewis for the undisputed heavyweight championship. Runner up is Ike Quartey and Tito Trinidad decide to fight each other instead of Oscar, who was the cash cow at the time. Both of those fights would've been classics.

I'd make it so Froch didn't get up from Groves first round bomb in Froch Groves 1.

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.
Camile Ewald never had a say in Mikes career or probably had a clue what was going on. Cus made Mike and if he and Jim Jacobs had not died so early in Mikes career would King have really got a hold on Mike? I doubt it. King needed Mike to lose those influential people.

You should have pushed for Ali's ban just as harder.

Re: Change one event in boxing history.
I wish Ali got the verdict in the first fight, that was the fight that really mattered.

I honestly don't think it would have made any difference. Tyson is a self-destructive person and still behaved like an arsehole even when Cus was alive. He would have gone off the rails regardless.
