Fights that happend when they should of?

Debating a few potential fights has me thinking about how rare it is we see a top fight when we should these days. What are some that happened at the right time?

My suggestion
Garcia/Matthysse

How recent Ron?

Let's forget the recent part. Just fights that happened at the right time. I should add from a fan perspective not considering promoters obligation to maximize fighters earnings.

I could be wrong about this but another one that seemed at the right time to me....
Tszyu vs Judah

Berrera vs Morales
Benn vs Gman
Vargas vs Quartey
ODLH vs Trinidad
Hagler vs Hearns
SRL vs Duran
Nelson vs Sanchez

Heres a few for different reasons



Tua Ibeabuchi


Tszyu Phillips


Forrest Mosley


Okkte Mundine ;D perfect timing for all the boxing fans the world over.

Pavlik-Taylor was perfectly timed.

I was pretty happy with Pacquiao-Cotto and I thought Marquez-Pacquiao II in particular was the right time.

I agree Garcia-Matthysse was at the right time.

Oscar and Tito fought at the right time but the fight was not great.

You're being too kind, that fight was a huge letdown haha

I think Manny v JMM was the most action packed fight from their series, whereas Israel Vasquez v Marquez 3 was brilliant.

Adding to those that have already been mentioned:

Froch-Ward
Froch-Bute
Cotto-Margarito I

Donaire-Montiel

Leonard-Hearns

Carbajal-Gonzalez

Bowe-Holyfield

I didn't put SRL/Hearns because while they were both prime there was a year of clamour before it happened.

I just noticed I titled it "should of", I have no idea what would make me do that. I obviously meant should have.

Barrera vs Morales
Froch vs Bute
Morrison vs Mercer
Hopkins vs Jones I
Chavez vs Camacho
Mayweather vs Corrales

Ward and Gatti met at the right time..for us.

Barrera Hamed also at the exact right time...for Marco and for us.

Buster Douglas /Tyson couldnt have been better timing for Douglas.

James Toney vs Roy Jones Jr.

Moorer vs. Holyfield 1

Tyson vs Holyfield 2

Holyfield vs Bowe 1 and 2

Ali vs Frazer 1

Donaire vs Montiel (people forget that Donaire was the underdog in this one)

Vargas vs Trinidad

Chavez-Whitaker :D

Duran-Leonard I
Hearns-Hagler
Gatti-Ward I-III
Wlad-Sam Peter I
Joe Louis-Max Schmelling II
Taylor-Hopkins I & II
Floyd-Corrales
MAB-Morales

Sanchez-Nelson
Sanchez-Gomez
Corrales-Castillo
Holmes-Norton
Saad Mohamed-Qawi
Duran-Dejesus
Zarate-Zamora



Just a few to add to a nice sized list.

Lennox Lewis v Gary Mason
Benn v Eubanks

A lot of good fights being mentioned. Many I agree with and a few I'm interested to debate once the list gets longer. Also a trend which pertains the reason for the thread, but that can wait...

Bowe/Evan Fields
Bruno/Lewis
Forrest/Mosley

Marquez-Vasquez...
