Foreman v Frazier II
Hatton -Mayweather if it ever happens.
Matt Marsh - Rocky Dean
They're having a triology :o
Also the Sam Soliman-Anthony Mundine triology was a joke.
Good call on Mundine vs Soliman that indeed was a joke.Quote:

Boxrec says that in the first Hopkins vs Allen fight, the fight had to be stopped after Mills Lane Pushed Hopkins out of the ring. I never heard of this. What happened?Quote:

Arce hussein 2
Leonard-Duran III
vargas and mosley 2
Mosley-Mayorga. Oh wait, that's not a rematch.
Danny Williams v Sprott v Audley v Skelton
azumah nelson-jeff fenech 3. why?
The fight was starting to get rough and Mills lane went to break a clinch and accientally sent Hopkins through the ropes.Quote:

I think some of these fights look stupid in retrospect......but sometimes they don't look that bad whenever they are made.Quote:

Going through this just now Hopkins had a couple of rematches he shouldn't have what the hell did he fight Echols twice for?
It might seem pointless now but not at that time.Quote:

Leading up to the fight Roger was just like his nephew. Talking loud and saying he was gonna destroy JCC. He was gonna do this and that....
Well, JCC gets him out fast. Then came the whole weight talk from Roger saying he had issues and blah! blah! blah!
Roger went flew up to 140 where years later it happened that JCC was highly ranked by his good from Sulaiman in the WBC ranks and Roger was the champ. A rematch because of the shocking win by JCC and the weight excuse.
While Roger lasted longer the outcome was the same, JCC won.
I don't think it was pointless especially because it wasn't an imidiate rematch and because it just happened years later. JCC was highly ranked and Roger happened to be the champ. The outcome of fight #1 was just the topping on the cake.
You know which JCC rematch was pointless?
vs. ODLH.
Now that was a pointless rematch.
The fight was even up till Hopkins fell out of the ring, I don't think it was his knee that he hurt. Could of been but i think it was his shoulder, i will have to check it out later.Quote:

Elchols became number 1 IBF contender making Hopkins fight him a second time, both fights were actually quite good. Second one was a dirty fight though.
Yeah! for some reason I pic. him on the floor holding his leg.Quote:

Can't remember...
That makes sense about the Echols fight.
Those damn! Mandatorys...
Quite a few of the fights mentioned were mandatories. Others made MONEY sense.
Not sure if this has been covered because im simply above back tracking through threads (new members game) but for me i just knew that Lennox would Smash Rahman down like a bag of shit tied up with string in the middle as soon as the rematch was announced and f*ck me he hit him hard..."One..Two...BANG"
Do miss Lennox

Calzaghe-Veit was the definition of pointless.
Some of these fight could be considered stay busy fights. .....in keeping ring rust off, no fight is pointless.
Winky vs Mosley II
No Winky fight is pointless :p
Winky vs. Anthony Ivory rematch......pointless;D;DQuote:

Hopkins vs Echols 2 was one of the dirtiest fights i've ever seen.Quote:
